I'm wondering if part of the issue is the presentation. The media broadcasters
should have been aware that many places were to remain dry and present the
story as such. As this is what the models were saying. It is very unfair to
blame the models, that is what upset me with Spud's original post.


The BBC don't make up the charts themselves, the met office provide them.
Either the computer models provided the charts or they were altered manually
by someone who didn't believe the computer. Either way they got it badly
wrong. Never mind no thunderstorms, there was barely any cloud. Thats not
a minor slip up, its a total forecasting failure.
