The,”experts “ didn’t predict last winters incredible snowfall in the mighty Sierra Nevadas. Can we believe them now? And what about their 50 to 100 year predictions? Yeah,right.

Can we believe them now?

Nope. They just don't have enough understanding of the system to make accurate forecasts beyond a day or two.

Contrast this with the folks who predict, correctly, when and where an eclipse will occur. It's because they DO have an understanding of their system that allows them to call it years in advance, maybe decades.

Yes indeed. It was 70 here in Spokane yesterday and snowing this morning. Local forecasters got it right. By noon, however, snow will stop.
