Why are the weather men always wrong

One thing that bugs me is that the weather men are always wrong in their predictions, they have loads of expensive computers and satellites but no matter what they say the weather is generally incorrect, if they say its going to rain we usually have a grey or sunny days and if they predict sun we get showers they never get snow forecasts right and the council never get the much needed salt on the roads. The only time they get the weather right is when it has already happened.


I'm so fed up with the inconsistent weather predictions i never know when to plan the washing as we don't have a tumble dryer or where to take Sophie out and about. So i have decide to try a good old fashioned method of weather prediction and collected some pine cones, using a bit of garden wire wrapped around the bases i attached them to the chains of a hanging basket that i have next to my kitchen window and see if they could predict any better, i have to say so far so good they have been more accurate than the weather men and they kinda make the basket look a little prettier too.
