The MET has a build in CO2 fudge factor.
As long as they keep running their computer programs with built in global warming, they will keep getting it wrong.
That’s the problem! With only 33 million, they didn’t get the “good” grants so they could only afford used computers and old data.
Obviously they are in-line for a significant increase in funding and much more believable forecasts….. /sarcoff
It is real tuff having to rely on used computers and data because there are only so many recipes for left over data and you you keep it to long it spoils!
The present £33m Tandy Radio Shack is obviously suffering from something as it has not yet produced HadCrut3 for November, well it has not announced it yet.
Interesting that HadSST2 has been in since 5th Dec at +0.237C. I think HadSST2 is 75% of HadCrut3?
They could have gone home and went online from their own computer to look up Piers Corbyn’s web site. Then just pay like 20 bucks for his winter forecast. They would be more accurate. No need for the biggie computer.
Real Science 
OT,
Where is that bloke with his kayak? He could do a bit of ferry work:-
“Ten ships, 600 crew trapped in frozen Sea of Okhotsk”

They probably relied on the MET office for their forecast!

guess they have stuck with the commodore
They sticking with the Texas Instrument calculators?
Most Brits would welcome a BBQ summer at this point!
The Met and the CRU would welcome a good reputation about this point. But, no barbecue summer and no repairing the reputation.
