[QUOTE="linga, post: 1381382, member: 392"] I have a feeling that under the current conditions no amount of money( or anything else ) will tempt a forecaster to predict exactly where and when any rain will fall let alone how heavy it is. All they can say is the conditions exist for heavy rain and thunderstorms and my understanding is that is what they are saying. As far as I know forecasting is about probabilities so even if they think its highly probable a certain event will occur there is a corresponding probability it wont. So by definition really they are going to be wrong sometimes. Personally I think they do a good job on the whole and considering the geographic position of the UK and its terrain. [/QUOTE]
