Criticism of Carnoustie forecast by TV pundits.

...
Quote " forecasts have been dodgy all week" said Mark James after reading
out a three hourly forecast for today. It basically said 80% chance of
light rain first thing dropping to dry with 30% chance of light shower for
afternoon. It was heavy rain this morning which could clearly be seen on
the TV. BUT, I wonder what was their source for the forecast? I thought
the UKMO had said there was a weather warning for that area and they were
on the edge of some heavy stuff, at least. So I'm not sure if the comments
were justified - perhaps those nearer to that area could comment.

Yes I was listening to the R5 and BBCTV commentary yesterday. All comments
were along the lines of how the severity was over done. This is the problem
isn't it.
