Default Why do so many forecasters never admit getting it wrong?

What irritates me is that they just seem to blithely carry on with today's
forecast as if nothing had happened when today's weather is
completely different from what they said it would be yesterday!
Now I *know* that it's not an exact science and that formal apolgies
might not be the order of the day but somekind of simple acknolwlegement
that things didn't go to plan might be in order, surely?
Perhaps even shock, horror! tied in with a little 'education' (remember
that word) as to why it happened......
