The way I see it, the problem with the MO "civvy" forecast is not that it is inaccurate, rather the problem is it is too simplified. Looking at the synoptic chart on the MO website gives me a much better picture of what the weather is likely to be like. Beeb forecast isn't too bad but still overly simplified. I remember when I was a lad when Messrs Fish, Kettley et al appeared on Telly with the synoptic charts, was useful, especially when I was studying Wx in Geography at high school
Forecast on a Sunday evening at the end of Countryfile is still alright however.
