i know it isn't their fault, but in britain the weather forecast is a running joke. i don't know anyone who believes it, and in fact i usually interpret their predictions to mean the polar opposite - more often than not rightly.
in most other jobs, consistent and unremitting failure and inaccuracy would surely not result in a "professional" salary. a basic forecast of heavy rain would suffice, with an update a few times yearly for occasional flashes of sun. the job could be voluntary, with expenses paid. does that sound fair?
