Bloody Met Office.

Nice of them to concede that they failed to see the recent cold snap. Even to the extent of them having predicted a milder than normal winter. 


So they got it wrong, so what?  Well so what for those unfortunate souls who PAY for their forecasts, or rely on them. They were even unable it seems to predict it from about a week before. 


So what again eh?  Well, fair enough what does it matter really, after all their computers cannot be expected to get it right all the time I suppose. 


Ask them what the weather will be like in thirty , fifty or ninety YEARS though, and they will bang on the money. They can be so certain of course because their computer models have told them so!
