Sir, – I think Battie White (Letters, November 20th) is being unfair to Met Éireann in arguing that accurate forecasts be given for large centres of population such as Dublin.
The met.ie website leads with a forecast in the Dublin area. Whether it is accurate or not depends on one’s view of how much sunshine constitutes a “spell” or how little rain qualifies for the description “patchy”. – Yours, etc,
DAVID LOUGHLIN,
Rathmines, Dublin 6.
