To be fairshort term forecasts have become much more accurate in the last few years, because of increasing computer power and better prediction modelling.
But long term forecasting is basically educated guesswork, comparing historical trends with current conditions. The weather is sensitive to all sorts of things. So if a butterfly flaps its wings in the wrong place...
