    Depends on where you are. When I lived in Florida I used to wonder why they got paid (outside of hurricane season, that is). Here in New England, the weather is much harder to predict since it changes all the time. They can usually predict tomorrow's weather pretty well, but it gets worse and worse the farther out you look. It's pointless to predict weather more than 3 or 4 days in advance around here, not that that fact stops them!

    Weather people in the Sahara are 100% right. Every day they

    predict daytime hot, sunny, and dry,with moderate to strong

    winds, Night time temps in the 50's with moderate winds.

    Weather people in the states use the pin the tail on the donkey

    system.

    I would have to say about 50% of the time.

    I would give them about 65% accuracy.
