Perhaps Mr Braine should take a peak on here. No harm in that is
there?

He really did say that and I sat momentarily open mouthed at what I'd
just heard - then I actually laughed out loud! It was very funny. The
two news presenters just looked a bit stunned!

That sounds like one of your forecasts.
If you're not sure, you just don't issue

I thought the same. I would think every forecast should take all of the
information and give a forecast with a confidence level and when that
confidence level becomes unacceptable and it becomes less than 50/50
they should say so, as they have been lately.
Two caveats I would add are that the Met Office have a larger pool of
expertise and more data than Paul so it should happen less often to them.

Absolutely true. They should have far greater success.
