Hedge your bets-Astrology or meteorology?

This is the real weather forcast released by the Met office today;

UK Outlook for Tuesday 26 Jan 2010 to Thursday 4 Feb 2010:
During the first week it looks like staying unsettled in northern and western areas with periods of rain, occasionally heavy, along with snow at times over the higher ground and with occasional gales. Central and eastern areas probably having a good deal of dry weather but with an ongoing risk of some wintry showers. Probably remaining cold in the south and east with easterly winds at times, temperatures nearer average in the north and west. At present there is a lot of uncertainty regarding the latter part of the period into February, but a continuation of rather unsettled weather is thought most likely with spells of rain, sleet or snow, and with a risk of strong to gale force winds at times across northern parts. Temperatures probably remaining below normal.

And this is mine:

There may be rain, sleet or snow in the next two weeks, which could be heavy at times. There is also the possibility of sunny spells. Temperatures may be near average, with possible periods below average, and the chance of milder temperatures cannot be ruled out.

.......Saturday could be a lucky day for some!
