The Met Office welcomes the findings of the Transport Select Committee and its acknowledgement of the quality of our short range forecasts provided during November and December of last year.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

The winter forecast would not be considered short range, as it goes out 3 months. But it sucked nevertheless. Then, of course there are so many weasel words in their short range forecasts that they can seldom be completely wrong. They shouldn’t be blowing their own horn one way or another.
Steve, I didn’t read the caption on the top. Sorry about that.
but the MET is tied into global warming…
…and the biggest part of global warming is forecasting the weather
Weather forecasting has very little in common with climate modeling. An average temperature for a date that might be predicted to rise by a degree in 50 years varies by many times that for a given date.
Why do you say that? Climate models extend weather models by adding additional parameters which vary over time (like atmospheric chemistry.)
Some folks actually believe the tale that Climate models are NOT related to Weather models! Ignorant fools!
The Met Office are an open joke in the UK. Most people just do the very opposite of what the forecast.
