Not learning by experience

The Telegraph reports that:
"The Met Office has quietly defended itself against its derided prediction of a "barbecue summer" by claiming its forecasters got the temperature right - just not the amount of rain."
Apparently:
"Its forecasters have now admitted that they are not very good at predicting the amount of rain that will fall in summer."
Just to show that people don't always learn by experience , the report ends:
"In a departure from the wet and warm summer, the Met Office has predicted a dry and cold September. "
Will they ever learn?
