I WAS WRONG to emphasise the severe weather so
much.

I haven't time to read all the responses but I imagine they all say pretty
much the same. Yes the forecast was wrong, but it was a good forecast given
what you knew and your skill to interpret it. We were all happy to accept it
then. Nevertheless to admit it was wrong helps us understand how difficult
it can be at times and we wish sometimes others would use the W word rather
than pretend it didn't happen.

Thanks, keep up the good work,

Dave
