20% question? 20% is forecasted a lot……Is the % 20 of the area their station is covering? Will get 20% where you are? 20% of the 24 hour period. Hard to adjust a outdoor schedule when I’m not sure if anybody knows Yes rain in Huntsville area today. The80% chance was right it did rain 80% of the area no. 80% of Wednesday no. no rain since 5:30 am. Tough job to have forecasting something that affects so many people’s lives.

A “ inaccurate forecast” is better than the not knowing anytime.

Try guessing the weather yourself and see how it works out for you. I can look at a radar and get pretty close, could not be much worse than current system Ok, without looking at a forecast what will the weather be tomorrow, 3 days from now and when do you see the next possibly bad storm set-up coming and will it be in the daylight or darkness? I'll wait... Chance of rain in the morning, then windy and drier by afternoon. Sunny and windy on Friday, warmer sunny less wind by Saturday, next round of bad storms in 10 or so days would be my guess since it's spring

Well, they love weather alert days and the attention. Some are legit and some ain't.

Weather is not 100% all the time.
Best thing to do is to just not watch or listen. Pretty easy.
If it's raining or a tornado hits or its 99 degrees, so be it. Just ignore the meterologists and weather reports.

I look at it as all of Us alive today are very fortunate to have weather forecasting technology and knowledge to predict forthcoming weather events. It was not to long ago that folks were sitting ducks when bad weather was upon them with little to no notice.

Had an Ef1 drop down for just a short period about 10 miles from us, purty sure be few more confirmed after tomorrow. Hell probably gonna have spend about 2 to 3k repairing my driveway because of all heavy rains today smh. But could always be worse...

Yesterday forecast at 3:00pm: heavy rain in my area until 9 pm, rain stops at 3:30pm Todays forcast at 12:30pm: rain and flooding from 3-9 pm rains lightly from 1 til 4pm Couple weeks ago they called for rain all day and it never rained. I do not understand how they can miss the timing of storms so often and sometimes completely. I think that predicting the weather is a lot like predicting what women are going to do. Have you ever tried that?

I told someone the other day they seem to miss the weather more last three years than in past. I never cancel any hunting/fishing trips until I get and see. We didn’t get any rain yesterday. Supposed to be heavy winds last night and this morning and not even a breeze right now.

That's why in aviation we called them "weather guessers." Drama sells. We live in a drama driven society. I also 100% agree with this. I saw a comparison of a weather forcecast: same location, same temperatures, etc. In the early 90s all the colors were non-threatening, now with the same temperature everything is red with little fire (hot) symbols. All part of the plan to scare the idots into submission.
