Nighthawk,
Luckily the military meteorologist (at least when I was in the Air Weather Service) are not as wishy washy about their weather forecasts! They were held accountable for forecasts that were outside of acceptable parameters. They actually had to explain why their forecast was off!! That's called accountability!! I don't see too many civilian forcasters getting fired for shoddy weather reporting - not so long as OOPS is an acceptable response!!
