As many industries besides agriculture put a lot of faith in weather forecasts ,I am surprised that Weather Forecasting Businesses "that charge for their services" do not have to comply with a British Standard of accuracy of weather forecasting like most other industries !!!
Joking aside, I would be interested to know the weather forecasting service "TESCO"use ,during the summer months to predict when a warm spell is coming so that they can coordinate the supply train to provide for a glut of salad /barbecue supplies if a hot spell is coming.
I don't think the weather forecasting service they use would need to get their forecasts wrong very many times Tesco would be taking them to court for misleading information or some other way of going getting compensation for their inacurrate forecast.
As farmers put a lot of trust in weather forecasting services ,with much at stake,I do hope that those offering weather forecasts on this forum or elsewhere realise, the financial consequences if they are incorrect.
