In case you go out in a cardi and need a padded jacket in 10 minutes time. You know how unpredictable British weather can be.
I'm assuming it's the same in other UK countries as it is in England. |

"The Met Office is based in Exeter, the building has lots of windows, so they can just stick their heads out and tell us what it’s doing. "
And yet they still get it wrong.
I've been in there. With all the amazing technology they have you'd think they'd use something more scientific than a revolving dartboard covered with cardboard cut outs of clouds, snow, rain and the sun, a set of blunt darts and a blindfold to predict the weather.
The perfect job. You can be wrong 90% of the time and still get paid.

It’s a probabilistic game, even if I said I was 99% sure x will happen if it didn’t I’d still be right if the 1% did happen. Look up cognitive bias and Utility theory. |
