I find them wrong a lot, so we don't pay attention.

In our area (Chicago) the forecasts are usually pretty accurate. They have satellites and they can see the patterns coming from across the country.

They may be off about what time it will snow, or exactly how much, but they are nearly 90% accurate most of the time.

I need to know the weather. The first thing I do when I get out of bed is to turn on the TV and get the weather. It drives my husband crazy, "Just stick your head out the door!" That can't tell me what it will be like at 2:00 PM or in the evening. I NEED to know.

Our meteorologists got it right again tonight! Although it's already early spring, it's snowing right now!!! I'm ecstatic as this is my third snowfall this winter/early spring, and our area doesn't usually get that many in one season! I love snow!

I don't expect them to be 100% right, but I keep in mind - and prepare myself - if I'm going to be outside at a given time for a week+, that there's a possibility this and that might happen weather-wise.

I mostly tend to ask the internet how cold it is outside right before I run out the door. That tends to be pretty accurate. Also the % chance rain, because I will forget an umbrella 80% of the time anyway.

So not "the weatherman," nah. I don't ask for perfection. But weather.com and related info tends to know more than I do. It might color my perception that I'm only looking one day at a time, and *maybe* a weekend.

I have a strange ability to smell when its gonna rain. I heard others can do this too, so yeah, Im pretty sure im not the only one who relies on myself alone for weather.

Ha, no one believes in them 100%. I tend to rely on them. They're usually not too off around here.

no they are wrong too often

It's basically at the point that I can predict what the weather will actually be based on their predictions. This is ESPECIALLY true when it snows. If they say it's going to snow, it probably won't. If they say it's going to start as snow and turn to rain, it'll snow all day. If it's supposed to warm up on Tuesday, th esnow won't melt until Thursday or Friday.
