Thanks for that Will.

I always like to read these long range forecast, whoever has a go, but
we all expect a bit more than guesswork or rhuematics playing up, if
you know what I mean. Andrew does seem to be having a go using the
information available. I have read his forecast upto the end of
January 2004 and couldn't realy see where the Daily Telegraph got the
severe winter idea from. So I think it is the Daily Telegragh who is a
bit red faced over this adn I guess P.E. told them so.

It is only IMHO Keith but in the last few years, I genuinly feel the D
Telegraph has severly 'dumbed down' and become little more than a joke
compared to what it used to be say, 10 yrs or so ago. Vey much self centred
and sometimes blatantly wrong journalism on many issues. I rarely waste my
money buying it these days, once it was my regular newspaper. The best bit
now, I have to say, is the Sat/Sun weather column by, well, you know who.

Andrew Bond has now set up a web page explaining exactly how Metcheck

makes its
predictions from NOAA information.

http://www.metcheck.com/premium/lrf_howmade.asp

Andrew says he will link this to the front page as well.

Enjoy.
