I think the opposite, it is remarkable how accurate weather forecasting is.

Re: Why is it?

Its all about definition, the forecasts seem quite accurate my only gripe is when the forecast says Showers but when looking out the window, the shower started at 8.00am and is still going at 11.30am.

Here I’ve experienced roofers on one side of the city unable to work because of the rain, yet 20 minutes across to the other side of the city, roofers from the same company working away in dry over cast conditions.
