For the week, maybe. For the next 24-36 hours, the weatherman is pretty close more often than not.
All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

Besides, perhaps FET is a conspiracy too.
It is just the way it is, you understanding it doesn't concern me.

At it's simplest, you treat it as 'Will it rain here tomorrow?', then compare the results of the supercomputer and the previous-day technique. Do it yourself over a couple of months - you may be surprised by the results!
In other words you just make that up. That's what I thought.

Then it's a good thing that the weather models run on those supercomputers predict a lot more that just "is it going to rain here tomorrow?" I don't know about where you live, but where I live the weather can get pretty psychotic and/or schizophrenic sometimes.

Try living in Ireland - if it's not raining it's inexplicable!

Indeed we do! Though don't suggest to any of the died-in-the-wool nationalists I know (I'm English, so I get ranted at a lot) that Ireland shares anything with the UK.
