It's because the Met Office is a commercial (small c) organisation, you
don't get the good usable stuff unless you hand over your credit card
number!


And I thought the USA was the only superpower with monkey in control of
the government?
(No, not really.)

This sort of thing is proof that democracy died a long time ago. If
there ever was such a thing.

So what is this sort of illegal meritocracy called?

(Weather) for the select through the autocratic from the masses?

Perhaps we aught to ask around the other sites we visit to see if anyone
ever uses the Met office website. A sort of poll.

Somehow I doubt they do; so much for the public health and safety items
posted there.
