Norman Lynagh :
My main gripe is that most of the "experts" are being very positive
about what "will" happen, even down to quite precise regional detail.
There's not a lot of uncertainty being expressed. The theme seems to be
that "our models show that this will happen and we are confident that
our models are accurate". If only it were that simple :-(
This is presumably for the same reason that they don't tend to use
percentages in shorter term forecasts. You hear people even on this
ng saying "let me know what WILL happen, not what might". I dare say
this is the popular view, and the BBC (as usual it seems) are pandering
to it.
