But we are all CERTAIN that your models predicting a 1.5342 degree C rise in 100 years are dead accurate.

Because we always make predictions before an event, rather than after? 😉😄

“Why Are We So Bad at Predicting How Much Snow We’ll Get?”

Because God confounds you to remind you that you’re human and intrinsically fallible.

Suck it up, buttercups.

At six o’clock P.M. last night Philly meteorologists were dealing with four weather models predicting anywhere from 0 inches snowfall in the city to 10 inches - so they took the average of about 5 inches, which turned out to be just about right - brilliant.....

When I was a kid in St. Louis, there was a TV weatherman named Jim Bolen who, one winter evening, gave a forecast of partly cloudy. A few hours later a huge snowstorm hit the area, Bolen couldn’t make it home and, when he did get home, he said there was a foot of “partly cloudy” waiting to be shoveled off his driveway.

We have a meteorologist in our office that once predicted 0-12” of snow.

I pointed out that the forecast would probably be correct for 364/365 days of the year.

Good odds for the seers. Shades of Jean Dixon. ;)

Probably use the same company they use to predict which flu type to make flu vaccines!

Because there are so many variables involved and weather is a dynamic system.

Predicting the “future” is impossible! You can only GUESS. Even if your prediction turns out to be correct, it’s still a lucky guess.

2 + 2 = 4. No variables. Weather predicting, millions of variables.
