Sydney

I know there were cuts to funding, and Murdoch wants to kill it along with ABC, SBS and the BBC, but I'm getting tired of the Bureau of Meteorology Sydney weather forecasts

Every. Single. Day. Is. The. Same.

• Possible rainfall. 0 to 7mm. Chance of rain:80%. --> It might rain or not
• Sunny morning. High chance of showers late this afternoon and evening. --> Sunny or rainy, idk ...
• A thunderstorm likely during this afternoon and evening, possibly severe with damaging winds, heavy falls and large hail. -->Storm? Storms are bad! Might be bad!
• Light winds becoming southerly 30 to 45 km/h in the evening.--> Not very windy, then windy. You choose.

W T F???!!??!!!!! Is this written by AI just using every possible weather scenario? Or do they have to pass it through the lawyers before it's published?

I thought we'd be getting more accurate and more precise with weather predictions, but it seems like it's just "Throw everything in there and at least one will be right"

/end rant

As an aside, I read somewhere decades ago, that the most accurate weather prediction was that the weather tomorrow would be the same as it was today - and that was accurate about 70% of the time and beat all other weather prediction models. I don't even know why I'm still typing lol 😭
