    Click your heels together 3 times, and perhaps reality can be altered to suit your view of it.

    What an extremely erudite statement! Would you mind expanding on it for the edification of the members here who might not share your outstanding intellect of the issues involved.

    Yes, it may. But since they are not capable to predict the temp correctly for tomorrow on a city-size level, I doubt they will hit the nail on the head with this one.

    Here's some highlights of The Met's past predictions...

    Summer 2009

    Prediction: �Barbecue summer� with high temperatures and no more than average amounts of rainfall.

    Result: The wettest July in almost century. However, there were days in which the temperature peaked above 86F (30C).

    Winter 2008

    Prediction: A mild and dry season, with a few strong chilly spells.

    Result: The eighth-warmest January ever recorded. The mild conditions during the winter even led to flowers and wildlife, including snowdrops and red admiral butterflies, making unseasonably early appearances.

    Summer 2007

    Prediction: High temperatures and no indications that it would be a particularly wet summer.

    Result: The summer of 2007 was one of the wettest since records began. June and July saw major flooding across parts of England and Wales.

    However from The Met office...

    The Met Office claims its track record on global weather forecasts is good, with predictions right to within 0.06C over the last decade.


    However (and this one I remember)...

    Three years ago, Met Office scientists predicted that 2007 was likely to be the warmest year on record globally. It turned out to be the sixth warmest.


    In fact a ton of mainstream media immediately jumped on board with the press release 2007 would be the warmest year, beating out the super El nino year of 1998. As example the BBC - 2007 to be 'warmest on record'

    also...

    Reuters
    MSNBC
    CBS
    USA Today
    The New York Times
    The New York Sun
    The Washington Post
    National Geographic
    CBC
    The Guardian
    The Independent
    China People Daily
    ABC Australia
    Discovery Channel
    Science Daily
    Met Office

    That one's interesting because like 2007, like 2010 began with an El Nino. Unfortunately the El Nino was short, and temps plummeted down. You can see that here...

    So if the same thing were to happen this year, the 21st century would continue on it's over a decade plateau of no warming.
