It would be good if the BBC's planned Weather Competition (I think that was the name?) that Roger Harrabin was promoting went ahead. It would at least align the various forecasting camps into "competing". This is the sort of thing that I'd happily give my spare time towards to help facilitate. Would be very interesting indeed.
