We need a better weather forecasting system

I am not complaining because my plans have been upset for the second consecutive weekend. But why does the met forecast always have to come a few hours too late? A significant portion of the population spent Saturday hoping that things wouldn't worsen to 26/7 levels. And when did the met forecast heavy rainfall? - after hours of torrential downpour plunged a lot of traffic channels under water. As usual, the met advised caution the next day - which turned out to be almost dry! We Mumbaikars have long stopped expecting that BMC will do anything but make things worse. But it would really help if we at least had a better forecasting system. Shame.
