has the Met office lost the plot?
In message , dutchman
wrote Can somebody enlighten me as to 1 - The national BBC weather forecast has no clouds any way near us. But the local BBC weather shows rain. 2 - Yahoo weather, BBC weather and Met office web sites all show different weather forecasts for the same place. I just have do an average of all 3 to get a reasonable forecast. 3 - When I check out the weather on the Met office (typically) website we are on the very edge of the 'West Midlands' map and right on the very edge of the 'East Midlands' map. When will I be able to get the forecast for my town bang in the middle of the screen. My response from the met office was 'you get what we give you'. The weather computer models cannot agree on what the forecast is for tomorrow but when the same models are used to predict global warming suddenly normally sane people believe the results! -- Alan news2006 {at} amac {dot} f2s {dot} com |

What do you get if you "Enter a town, city, country name, or a UK postcode" in the window provided here http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/d/ This is exactly as I was saying. If you enter Daventry, Northants, it says its going to be light showers for tomorrow. But in just seeing the BBC TV weather, its going to be reasonably OK with sun (but no rain). Who at the BBC is not talking to each other ??? |

I was about to respond with some remedial education, when I realised that the posting was almost certainly by another A. Macmillan sock-puppet. And the cry goes out "you'll burn in Hell" if anyone dares to question anything on which the theory of Global warming is based. I assume that no more research grants are required for weather forecasting computer models because they so reliable that they can now predict what's going to happen tomorrow - and all the models predict the same thing without any deviations. -- Alan news2006 {at} amac {dot} f2s {dot} com |

Now it's stopped for a bit but the breeze is getting up again and it's a very black horizon over there. We're going to lunch with someone who is moving to Gloucestershire and wants to give Ray cuttings of some of her most precious plants, so there's a fair chance we'll be drenched to the skin and blown to Cornwall! -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon |

Ducking and running? And what's this rumour about a Third Man. Just thought I'd slip that in. Think that's everything cover-ed What silly point to make. Bit wide of the mark, that one. I'm now completely stumped apart from the bowling a maiden over joke. It's pouring with rain here - must go and check the gullies. Bye Bye -- hugh Reply to address is valid at the time of posting |
