Day off so I decided to cut the grass (second cut) but watching the
BBC weather (UKMO by another name) the presenter (the one they slip in between Carol Driftwoods mumblings) clearly showed rain for the SE so I put me skates on and cut the grass even though it was still wet from with the morning dew. Now I see no rain is expected so wtf is going on . From people who can predict AGW decades ahead its a pretty poor show at only several hours ahead, Looking again at the BBC graphics they clearly show light rain around 16:00 to 17:00 hrs http://news.bbc.co.uk/weather/forecast/10209 Yet looking at UKMO who ,lets face it, are Harry Corbett's hand to BBC weathers Sooty hand puppet it doesn't show that rain. To confuse matters further looking at UKMO's graphics http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/...t_weather.html, this seems to contradict this http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/...ast_radar.html. Oh well I can always amuse myself with the new easy to use less technical weather warnings. "Bye bye everybody! Bye bye!" |

To Lawrence, there is no distinction. He believes that the MetO is utterly crap at everything it does and it is a part of some kind of bigger left-wing conspiracy. He knows that, because the "Daily Telegraph" and the "Daily Mail" tell him that's the case. |

Always judge a forecast at outcome! OK, you might not have got much rain but you can clearly see that the rain band intensified and you could quite easily have been rained on. -- Col Bolton, Lancashire 160m asl |

What you do is log in to those sites (ice area and daily temps, mainly) hoping to see a short-term cooling trend and you then use it as justification for a long-term cooling trend starting, or a support for *******i's lone-furrow ideas about climate beginning to cool. You must have noticed that every time you do this, the trend soon changes direction. That's because there is noise operating around that warming signal. Surely you must see that? It's always good to draw attention to extreme, short-term conditions and try to link those to synoptics or whatever else may be happening. That's good and interesting, but what you need to learn is that these really are short- term affairs and they will reverse. |
