Met Office Scrapping Seasonal Weather Forecasts

The Met Office has decided to scrap its seasonal weather forecasts after coming under criticism for failing to predict the UK's coldest winter for decades.

This comes following false hopes of a "BBQ Summer" last year which turned out to be very wet and cool!

In a bid to restore faith the Met Office will now be issuing 30 day forecasts which they claim will be more useful to the public anyway after admitting that seasonal forecasts can never be as accurate as short-term forecasts.
