The weather forecast failed today...

Forecast was right yesterday. The rain was on time as what my weather app said. So today, when it started rumbling and the sky was dark, the air cooler, I thought the forecast was going to be correct again that the rain would come at 4. Well, it's 6pm now but still not a single drop of rain. How accurate is your weather forecast?

Reasonably, but not great. Sometimes the forecast says it is raining here, but it is not.

Weather forecasts can be more difficult to predict because they can change suddenly. Despite the fact that modern technology has made significant advancements in weather forecasting over the years, forecasters still make mistakes and are inaccurate.

It’s because of the global warming.

Ours is often wrong. It’s raining here today which was predicted though.

It’s good when the forecast is right. Anyway, I don’t expect the forecast to be that accurate.

I can hear the thunder now. I thought it was going to rain too this morning but in the afternoon, the sun shines hotly

How accurate is your weather forecast? It's not very accurate Toni Most of the time it's wrong in parts

Our local weather people are normally pretty good. I remember a couple of months ago our national weather service was saying for my area to prepare for a series of terrible tornadoes. Our local people were saying don’t worry, we’re fine. The local people were right, and made the big wig national experts look bad. I just hope they’re right that we get rain on Wednesday. We need a break in this drought.
