Why do meteorological forecast always go wrong?

Since the past 3-4 days every newspaper, every TV Channel and every FM station is talking about how Friday, Feb 1, 2008, is going to see a temperature of 0 degrees or maybe even lower than that here in Delhi.

Primary schools had been closed since the past 3 days because of the cold wave and with sudden dip in temperatures. But somehow I do not feel its as cold as its being talked about so.

And today, when they expected the 0 degree temperature, its actually warmer than the past 3-4 days. Talk about Murphy's law for the Meteorological Department :D

Now if the temperature dip actually happens late evening or night, then its a different story. I'm sure Met department will certainly rejoice in giving a correct foorecast for a change :D
