So is that a tacit admission that the ECMWF is the best?

Looks like it, cunningly disguised by choosing a graph format where they
don't have to include an explicit line for it. It's interesting that
the ECMWF seems to have been further improved around July last year, as
most of the other models seem to dip in relation to it from then on. I'm
surprised that the German model seems to be worst by a wide margin; I
thought the Germans were good at everything.

Thanks for the link,

And thanks from me too.
