the correlation of wet in england is not linked to every el nino

when the midlands of england have a wet time the west of scotland often dryer than normal is

the weather is far more complex which makes it hard to predict more than a day forward

Its the same in oz with elnino making it dry, a mistake the federal weather dept made aling with climate extremeist the national broadcaster, they where salivating at the prospect of drought.

Although now dry in my part if the world the rest of the country has been wet this summer, even the desert is flooding.

Many other privately paid forecasters got it right.

Must have been some serious money made by the folks who.bought all those cheap store lambs, or was that hyped up over here too?

Many lost alot of money, some made money mostly processors, Aldi and supermarkets take lambs pretty light.

It cost me 15k in losses for cattle excluding feeding and fert etc for the year.

Managed to buy in a fair bit cheaper than current market price.

The exporters have made a killing.
