Living where we do, forecasting the UK weather is a thankless task.
Every few hours, it seems, the Met Office, complete with its super-computers, satellites, radiosondes and remote weather stations needs to change the forecast. Personally, it seems the only reliable forecast is to look out of the window and see if it is raining!
We have friends over for lunch today and the forecast has changed so many times this week as to be totally useless. The only reliable thing you can say about UK weather forecasts is they are likely to be wrong and never, ever, plan an outdoor event on the basis of a UK weather forecast.
Yes, I know we are at a complex point where weather systems meet, but please let us not pretend we can forecast. Clearly we cannot. Chaos theory reigns!
UPDATE 1140z: Guess what? The forecast has changed yet again for early afternoon!
