Unlike UKMO Dave Who immediatly accepted their dire failure after claiming on the 23rd March this year that April, May and June 2012 would be drier than avarge thus exacerbating the then drought conditions. Now where was that admittance that their forecast was plain wrong? Ermmm.... no they didn't did they . Oh well at least with Piers you have to aggree to pass money on to him whereas the other lot you have no choice. |

I doubt they would've said "would be" drier than average. They use probabilites for forecasts going that far ahead. IIRC the "drier than average" scenario was exhibiting the highest probability, but not by much. A probability forecast offers no definitive "it will be like this" guidance. -- Freddie Bayston Hill Shropshire 102m AMSL http://www.hosiene.co.uk/weather/ https://twitter.com/#!/BaystonHillWx*for hourly reports* |
