    Bit of an unlikely confidence limit for weather forecasting isn't it?

    Doesn't the application of defects per million require a number of individual defects? Or are you calculating the defects of the averages?

    I'll happily have a look see at UKAS and WELMEC and post anything back on the uncertainty of measurement which is relevant to six sigma calculations.

    Out of interest, aren't the current long range forecasts quoted as something like within 25% confidence limits decreasing by a quarter every day?

    Or have a look at the NIST guidance on uncertainty...

    Six sigma methodolgy allows expression of data with 99.9973% confidence limits, which statistically is pretty awesome!

    Modern high accuracy calibration uses 95% confidence limits, perfectly acceptable even for massively large businesses such as multinational pharmaceutical companies. Its the type of stuff which leads on from that moment in school when you sit there in maths and think "What the hell am I going to need this for."

    na, NIST guidence should not be used as it is not recognised by the NIGM allowance.
