MET Office admit they cannot forecast !!

Well as a fitting end to this 34 page thread
http://www.disco3.co.uk/forum/topic42668.html?highlight=snow

the MET Office are finally now admitting that they cannot forecast!!
http://uk.news.yahoo.com/5/20100305/tuk-un...dbed5.html

So if you want a long range forecast, ask me, I'll ask my wife and she'll get it from the amatuer forecaster in her work.
You know, the one how predicted all this severe winter weather when the MET Office were saying we were in for a mild one.

From 3rd Dec 2009

The amazing thing is that over the last five years have they awarded themselves bonuses of over £12 million and the Chief Exec of the Met office is on more than the Prime Minister Shocked

I'm expecting next winter to be worse than this. Depends on the solar wind which hopefully might save the day and pick up a bit. On the other hand the weekening El Nino might be replaced with a La Nina cooling things down even more.
