Having updated the rest of Summer outlook with more unsettled weather,
the progs this morning look the most settled for weeks....

They're getting more and morelike an independent weather forcasting
website who claimed long range accuracy that changed every few weeks to
help maintain that accuracy. Now I wonder who they are? Ah yes UKMO


Ok, I think we've all got the point you're not UKMO's No.1 fan. Your bigotry
is quite irritating

I think UKMO are marvellous, 2 - 3 days out the forecasts are spookily
accurate. With such a variable UK climate, accurate predictions are critical
to our daily lives. I can choose car/bicycle/motorbike and appropriate
clothing for work with no worries. I can plan golf, fishing, days out with
excellent confidence of what weather to expect. I know when to water the
garden, when not to bother, when to dress the lawn before rain, when to wash
the car. When to do outdoor painting, when *not* to light the B-B-Q, etc,
etc.

BTW I've got no connection with UKMO but I went to Exeter once a few years
back. The weather (as forecast) was lovely.
