Britain Soggy Summer

FILE - This is a Friday June 26 2009 file photo of festival-goers walking through the mud at the Glastonbury festival in Glastonbury England, Friday June 26 2009. It's the phrase that haunts Britain's weather forecasters "barbecue summer". It was used in April by the country's chief weather forecasting body when it predicted the summer would be warm and sunny. After a soggy July, Britons are miffed. Meteorologists have been forced to defend their science and their bonuses. The government-funded Met Office has paid more than 1 million pounds ($1.7 million) in annual bonuses to staffers for meeting targets, including the accuracy of forecasts.
