Sigmet Nil - make no mistake this is day and daily in every respect - I just chose this occasion to voice my frustration - don't pick holes in my one example to shoot down the arguement. Did you deduct anything about the differences in the forecast about the wind........?
The health and safety approach to weather forecasting has now gone beyond a joke and is now causing real safety issues to those who use forecasts - the sailing fraternity in Scotland has given up on anything originating from the Met Office - once again, make no mistake they are utterly useless. The growth of commercial pay for weather sites proves the point .......... and please don't give us the local conditions excuse.
"Actfasts" - the way of the future....... it's why the BBC TV met people spend 85% of the forecast telling you what we have already had today.
I ask the question - if we didn't have the Met Office would it be such a lose ?
