UK Met Office get Flak

The UK Met Office previously predicted a "barbeque Summer" which here at weathergossip has slightly downgraded to a Summer of warm spells interspersed with cooler periods. Now most of the warmth seems to be behind us. I would sympathize with Met Office as the are a useful and accurate resource for all weather forecasting and they did say it would only be a "65%" chance of a good Summer. It questions whether it is a good idea to offer a seasonal forecast when it is in the infancy of its scientific development. http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/corporate/pressoffice/2009/pr20090729.html
