Is weather forecasting a pseudoscience?

[BunnyKillBot]

It seems to me the only thing those weather gadgets that sit on your desktop are good for is telling you what the weather currently is at a weather station a good few miles from where you actually are (look out the window?). Beyond that, weather forecasts are about as much use as licking your finger, feeling for a breeze and declaring its going to be overcast but mostly dry.

If you took the 10 day forecast vs some dodgy geezer down the pub, i'd wager its just dumb luck weather (sic) if they actually got it right.

A 10 day forecast is useless, 5 days is max after that accuracy is lost rather quickly. As for a "fake science" are you on drugs? The amount of data collected to make weather models is huge and more is needed if forecast's are to improve. So no its not a fake science.

It IS a fake science. For all the ponce and data, they still can't get it right. There is just too much data, too many variables, too much unknown.
