Question: Are Meteorologists prophets of god?
Many Christians tend to think that every significant storm is “God telling us something”.
So does that mean Meteorologists or TV weatherman are prophets of god?

Question: How do meteorologists predict the weather?
Okay, I would love to know how meteorologists predict the weather, mainly when a huge storm is coming, like a tornado, a blizzard, thunderstorms and how severe they will be, when it is going to be sunny, cloudy, and the temperatures. Please help!

Answer by Mark V
Well, my first answer has to be, “very poorly.”
For hundreds of years, the barometer (air pressure) and thermometer were all that anyone had. With a single point of reference, or even if there were two distant points in a city, you really can’t do anything about predicting the weather except the “I think a storm could be coming” or “the weather’s going to be nice” swan-necked decorative barometer at your grandmother’s house.

Question: How do meteorologist predict a tornado?
I don’t need to know about the warning systems that much. I
am just asking, how do they find out that a tornado to coming before it does?
At this rate, nobody will be getting the best answer.
It’s called information.
I do not appreciate petty and helpless answers and comments such as “duh”. Or short and unhelpful answers.

An activity that is quickly on the rise is storm chasing. As in the movie “Twister”, storm chasers are people who pursue thunderstorms and tornados. This can be as dangerous as it is exciting. People who do this are drawn to the potential power of the storm to see how close they can get. If you are considering trying chasing tornadoes, there are a few steps that you have to familiarize yourself with first before you go out to get up close and personal with that storm.
Fortunately, the risk of being overwhelmed by a storm is very low. But if you place yourself in the wrong place at the wrong time, it can happen. Even the most seasoned storm chasers do their best to avoid the “core punch” of a storm. The core punch is the wall of extremely heavy precipitation that is associated with a thunderstorm. People sometimes get as close to these walls as they can for the purpose of gaining a better position on the storm. If you have paid enough attention to the path of the storm, you will not need to endure the core punch. There are several negative situations which can arise due to this period of intense rain, hail, thunder, or lightning. You may inadvertently drive yourself straight into dangerously large hail. This hail can be large enough that it damages your car, possibly even breaking your windshield. You may also have issues with visibility and slick roads. Worst of all, however, is the chance that you may become disoriented and drive directly into the tornado. Needless to say, this would not be good.
Keep in mind that you don’t want to put yourself directly in the path of the storm. Rotating clouds can signal the path, and if these clouds have already formed a funnel, the smart thing to do is avoid getting directly in front of that funnel. Should you notice that the tornado is getting bigger but not moving, this will be a clear indication that you are in a straight line with potential disaster. Remember to stay alert; you can’t allow your focus to slip and as with any outdoor activity, you have got to remain observant to stay safe. It might be helpful to have a second set of eyes in the car with you. You have to remember to look everywhere at once, as well as keep your eyes on the road. Tunnel vision is a common problem in situations like this. Try not to get fixated on the object in front of you; it’s all too easy to disregard everything else.
I love getting awesome images of Tornadoes and storm clouds. Sometimes I even go out to shoot lightning at night. I use Adobe Photoshop to edit all my images, but make sure you use an adobe promotion code to get a discount on it.
As with any new endeavor, it’s good to take along someone who already knows what they are doing. Their experience could prove invaluable, as they might be able to give you tips you never would have thought of because you lack practice, simple things like keeping the car running in case you need to get away quick. Never drive through rising water and be careful of high gusts of wind. Don’t push your limits either. Do your best to avoid placing yourself in a precarious situation. If some gut instinct is telling you to get away, don’t question it; just get out of there fast! Remembering these steps will allow you to enjoy the experience more without exposing yourself to unnecessary dangers.

Question: do all meteorologists make forecasting mistakes?
Answer:
Answer by linlyons
of course.
weather forecasting is not an exact science.
some make more mistakes than others, not because they are worse, but because the area for which they are forecasting has weather that is more unpredictable.
eg, i might forecast that the weather in San Francisco, next July 4th would have a low in the mid-high 50s, and a high around 70. the fireworks would likely be mostly obscured by the low clouds coming into the bay.
and i’d be correct 70% of the time.
you’d be very hard pressed to be as accurate, only a week away, from many areas of the country.

Question: How do some believers expect people to take their predictions seriously when they can’t predict disasters?
Animals are able to sense natural disasters such as strong earthquakes before they happen(even if it’s on the same day but still it’s worth something). Meteorologists are able to predict hurricanes and where they will happen.
Yet the people who supposedly know how the world will end and how we need to find salvation can’t even do any of this? How do they expect anyone to take their claims seriously?

Question: What kind of weather this Winter is going to be expected for Seattle?
What is the weather going to be like this Winter? Since Seattle’s weather is unpredictable, and we usually get very mild Winters but sometimes we get a lot of snow. A lot of Meteorologists and Climatologists have said that the coming winter is going to be bad but it never happens. What does a large high pressure system in early December usually predict? A huge high happened 2 years ago around the same time but in January after that, it was around 50F! What do you think this winter would be like? Is it La Nina or El Nino?
Answer:
Answer by Ambassador
Despite what they say, nobody can predict the next season with any accuracy whatsoever! I have a been a meteorologist for 16 years. They try to link atmospheric patterns to la nina and el nino, but it’s such a loose correlation, you can almost make the data fit whatever you wish it to.
Look, if we can’t predict next week, how would you expect anyone to predict months from now? Case closed. Holler if you hear me!
If I were you, I would just expect “normal” weather, which is rainy followed by cool followed by brief warm ups followed by rainy followed by cool.

This is a video i took from my backyard during the hurricane gusts we got from IKE,’in Ohio!’. When i took this video the wind gusts were around 55 mph,but later on they got up to 70 and almost 90 mph. Me and my son took a walk during it,but there were times we had to run also.
