FURTHER to recent correspondence about the weather and forecasting, I remember what my geography teacher used to say.
Having explained the difference between climates and the variability of weather, he concluded that if we assumed the opposite to the Met Office forecast every day we would be right 51 times out of 100.
Having used this method for over 40 years I have not been disappointed. I commend it to all your readers.
B Jackson, Sacriston.
