First, they're all a bunch of fucking liars. You telling me that we can land a remote controlled robot of fuckin Mars, drive that nigger around taking pictures and drilling holes and shit, but you mother fuckers can't accurately tell me if it's gonna rain tomorrow? Fucking. Bull. Fucking. Shit. I ain't I ain't buying that shits, it's fuckin too expensive. Y'all mother fuckers can control the god damn weather, you can can tell me if it's gonna fuckin rain tomorrow.
Second, and this almost pisses me off more, is the flimsy fuckin language they get away with using. There's not a god damn difference between partly cloudy and partly sunny. Why the two terms? Because they're trying to emotionally manipulate people, and it fuckin works! Another one is chance of rain, fuck chance of rain. They'll tell you that there's a 90% chance of rain and you won't see a fuckin drizzle. What does it even mean? Like, 90% of the area MIGHT get rain? Like there's a 90% chance that it rains for a minute, or it's gonna rain for 90% of the day? Be specific you cunts.
This brings me to my third gripe, arguably the biggest. Storm predictions. Fuck your spaghetti models, cones of probability, and European climate models. You know exactly where the fuck a big storm is gonna hit, just tell those people. Nah, instead what they do is this fear based BROADcasting to get everyone within 200 miles of the Gulf or Atlantic to panic buy beer, plywood, gas, water, and whatever the fuck else their scared minds think they might need if the power goes out for a couple weeks. Meanwhile, BP, Home Depot, and Anheuser Busch are rubbing their hands and licking their lips. It's fuckin sick, if you have never seen someone in the grips of hurricane fear, it is fucking sick.
So yeah, fuck those guys. TL;DR the weather channel is fake news and fuck you too.

They're full of shit. I've known this for decades. And get this, dude, one of my local meterologists had to go to a hospital ER. My close friends mom and aunt were at the top of the totem pole nurses there and they have a story. I know these people and they aren't liars. This gay jew showed up at the hospital with a sweeper hose hanging out of his asshole and he had gerbils burrowing in and he couldn't get them to come out so the doc & nurses had to extract them then pull the sweeper hose out this goony kikes ass. The way this guy talks and acts is exactly like Mister Garrison from South Park. My jaw dropped when they told me this because I never could stand listening to him to get the weather report. All my red flags always went off.

Like, I had no idea that there was a storm coming until last night. I was at the bullshit rehab center that I'm ordered to attend and the guy watching me piss in a cup is crowing about some category five shit. Can't make this shit up.

We also have those transplants that act like they've never seen weather before or that our weather is wild here where I live. I live in a 4 seasons state. Our summers are like a jungle. Our winters can be brutal like Canada.

If it's Monday, and you get a 90% chance of rain for Wednesday, what that means is:
Based on temp, pressure, dew point, and whatever else predicted for Wednesday, 90% of days that had these same conditions historically saw rain.

The assholes on cable weather stations or news channels are trying to spook you for viewership; for the most part local news guys aren't doing that because they know their jobs are based on trust and reputation.
A few too many guys washing their cars on a hot, humid day could change where a storm begins, weather prediction probably wont get much better in a human influenced system. Studying other planets' weather is the trick to improving our models at this point and that's where my friend's research is pointed.understanding storms on mars and venus should help elucidate us on natural laws of weather and the human influences which warp the outcomes, through in an ai prediction algorithm about typical human behavior like washing cars and driving holidays and other things which effect the water cycle and you'll probably get 10-15% more precision.

It's not fucking hard to learn enough basic meteorology and staring at wind and cloud maps enough that you can figure it the fuck out yourself.

Best part: "spaghetti models" are running over my house back in Georgia.
Let me know if I need to build a pontoon boat or buy all the bread and water I can...my storm prep knowledge is for blizzards.

Also, if you think forecasts are lousy today you'd be horrified at how poor they were in the past.

Because of that while reading this I came to the opinion that they were the first dei employees.
To me it is one of those jobs that they give to people that can't do anything else.

Have you guys been watching the clouds lately? I've been a smoker for much longer than I haven't so I've spent a lot of time looking around outside. Shit's been unreal lately.
