weather forecasting when experts can't agree on what happene

In light of the discussion that got terminated earlier today, I thought I like to ask about the reliability of weather forecasting when experts can't agree on what happened in the immediate past. Forecasting derives from studying patterns from the past, comparing existing patterns with them and projecting forwards.

How could reliable forecasting of what is yet to happened have certainty when experts (and amateurs) can't agree as to what actually happened in the recent past with the benefit of objective evidence?

I enjoy a nice cold beer on warm days like today.

I was Morris Dancing today and it was rather hot. A nice ale afterward was quite nice. :D
Back to the weather, It has gone NW here now.

I agree with Tony this thread isn't going to go anywhere, if you have an issue PM a mod.
The forecasters were in agreement today, it didn't rain indoors....
