Default MetOffice claim succesful forecast

Felly sgrifennodd Stuart :
A MET office bod on five live this morning was claiming that thier severe
winter weather forecasts issued last Autumn for this winter was accurate.
He
based this assumption on the fact that this winter so far is the 4th
coldest
in the last 10 years!


It is strange that you should post this now; I too was thinking only the
other day how good a forecast it was.


Where abouts in the UK are you?, here in the Scottish Borders it has been
incredably mild, highlights so far, 1 day of wet snow and have needed to
scrape Ice of car window about twice! Today we had a rather balmy 14°C


(suggest you go and read the original text, re-posted by Will recently


Do you have a link to this?

then look at what's been happening over much of central Europe)


Why, I was interested in the accuracy for the UK forecast
