I don't want to hear a lot of jokes about this. An explanation might be nice, but I've really fucking had it with forecasts in the U.S. They are absolute shit! I'm not landmarking. I've obviously been obsessed with weather forecasts since getting into sailing. For six weeks, they NEVER get the wind right. Never! And I mean, it comes from 180 degrees in the opposite direction. They also NEVER get the wave prediction right. Twice, we've gone on the ocean with forecasts of one to two foot waves and winds in our favor, and it's always 100% bullshit. And no, this rant isn't based on just two incidents, but I'm in the middle of one of them right now, and my mom is a wreck.
These meteorologists should be held accountable. If I did this shit work in my job, I would be fired. They either need to fucking get it right or just say they can't predict certain things. I can look out my motherfucking window and do a better job than these assholes who are getting paid for shit forecasts. I think they should be forced to go through the kind of chop I'm going through every time they get it wrong.
