Let me clarify this a bit:

In meterology one differentiates between reports and forecasts.
While it is bad practise not to observe actual weather when making
a *report* it is quite OK to do so when making a *forecast*.
Since you were referring to a forecast I have to agree with you
that the RIPE NCC is *very* professional in what we are supposed to do
and at least as accurate as the professionals when it comes to weather
forecasting. ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-)

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
