Weather Forecasting

Here is the rant of the day... why does are tex dollars go towards weather forecasting, ie enviroment Canada?

It's much more reliable to look at the window. You look at the forecast for a few days in advance...looks good you think so you make plans... you look the next day and it's changed... then look later and it changes again... and again... so what's the point!?!?

Example... yesterday weather in Edmonton for Saturday June 1, for The Police concert said 26 with a few cloudy periods... now it's 20 and cloudy with showers...70% showers... up from 10%... what.

So again I ask... governments are so into privatization for people to make money for essential services such as water, gas and electric. Yet we hold onto something that is never right. Let someone else do it... if they are good and accurate people will pay for the forecast... if they are always wrong then they will crash and burn!!!
