The BoM cop this both ways. People don't look to the candlestick error bars on their statements, and their long range weather forecast is outside the window of the ABC article we're discussing. I get how upsetting it is to de-stock but if their best belief is the risk is high, what else are they meant to do? If they hadn't said this, and there'd been the drought, they would have got your scorn too, right? If you know a climate/weather bureau of comparable scale of footprint doing a better job, we'd all like to know. AFAIK there isn't one: most of the alternates work in different scale, with different climate forcing functions.
