Default Met Office getting the message across

Lets face it, the MO stand more chance of getting the forecast wrong than
they do of getting it right.
I know my two kids will be deeply disappointed if we don't get the
forecasted snow.

Personally, I think it's a bit daft the Met forecasting snow for 4 or 5 days
in the future. No one expects them to be able to forecast snow that far in
advance so why do they even attempt it with the attending high risk of
egg-on-face?

They'd have far more chance of being right 24 or 48 hours away, and that
easily enough for most people to re-arrange journeys and so on.
