At this time of the year I regulary used the http://www.bom.gov.au/ services to check the conditions for fishing and to get my gardening right.
One thing I have noticed over the past years is that there simply is no accurate forcast (for Vic) that does not change on a daily base.
For example, you chack on Sunday and it says rain and 17° for Monday, and mostly sunny and 26° for Tuesday.
You check the same a day after and it says possible thunderstorms for Monday and ongoing rain for Tuesday....
If you check again on Tuesday I says fine weather for the rest of the day and does not even mention any rain....
Is it just me or is the weather forecast just utterly useless?
I get the feeling that the only way to check is by looking into the sky and to check the weather radar...
So far I have been unable to find any forecast system that does not change the predictions completely on a daily base...
It is just hard to find any data that might tell you accurately how the weather will be tomorrow or the day after.
Ok, I admit most people don't really care about that, but I have to ask myself:
What is the use of paying a lot of money to people providing accurate weather forecasts if they can't get it right for the very next day anyway????
