Even before the lockdowns my local government started putting up these ads saying "It's too cold, don't go out!/it's too hot, don't go out!/it's rainy, don't go out!" So when the real dangers come around it's like the boy who cried wolf all over again.
As a tv meteorologist, I’d say more than half of us are constantly trying to get the news department to not overhype everything. Some companies are worse than others when it comes to hyping things up.
When I was in Uni for aeronautical science and took the meteorology class to better understand weather, I learned that there is no understanding weather. 🤣 Ever since that class I stopped trying to predict what's going to happen, and just tell my family and friends "the weather will do whatever it wants to do."
Are you forecasting a 50/50 prediction of meteorological employees trying to get news departments to under hype the weather? Jesus, these guys never give it a rest, do they?
In my first semester of Meteorology the professor said "until we have instruments that can measure every single air molecule in the entire world, forecasting will always be incorrect. We just try to get it close."
Basically insufficient reliable information to provide a high-granularity prediction. Even with faster computing (promised by the IoT and Quantum Computing revolutions), granularity will still be insufficient to provide more than 24 or so hours of significant local accuracy. Rainfall is an excellent example: We have two accurate gauges, 30 metres apart, and in any one rain event, they will rarely register the same amount of precipitation (although both are very well located). We NEVER have the same rainfall as the local airbase (10km distant); neither do we have the same temperature ranges, nor maximum / minimum temperatures. Large-scale forecasting can be surprisingly accurate; small scale, well that's another story entirely.
@@phils4634 You can move those gauges closer - even side by side - and they'll still be different. There's an old joke about a farmer who left his double-barrel shotgun against a fence and only one barrel filled with rain. It's the most accurate joke ever written.
Which is why I respect you guys so much. My fav part of the news by far and I love when y'all say it's gonna be rain in the forecast. Appreciate y'all for at least trying to give us a feel for what our days and weeks are gonna be like. I know it's stuff like 5g that's on the same bandwidth as weather instruments that's making weather predictions even that more complicated.
Yeah. I mean you are accounting for infinite variables to try to measure the conditions in a 5 mile plane. Constant interference from literally anything will skew models super slightly but overtime those errors show (hence why we don’t forecast past day 7). Sounds like you have a good professor
I used to want to be the weather reporter in San Diego. I figured that was the easiest job in the world. "Tomorrow will be the same as today. Back to you."
@@tyvulpintaur2732 That was around the same time the marine weather forecast in the PNW did the same thing. Forecasting the worst case scenario even though it's unlikely, because sometimes it happens and if people are not prepared they can perish.
Where I live the weather is easy to predict since we rarely get rain. I live in Las Vegas btw. Even I could get up there and say for the next week it's going to be extremely hot. Now give me a paycheck for that.
Have we had "If Human Resources Was Honest" yet? It could be the scripting and filming equivalent of dividing by zero, but that's a risk I'm willing to take
@Chris_Hood That's real ish. HR is like the Department of Propaganda and the Gestapo rolled into one. Maybe Horton can tackle HOA's, too. If Tomax is HR's, HOA's are Xamot.
Even though I know the weather people sometimes go over board I am glad I found Mr. Weatherman channel on TH-cam Brian is honest and straightforward without all the fluff and crap he get right o the point. Thanks for sharing the video.
Agreed that "TV" or Broadcast NEWS companies want to portray the weather this way, but the people who actually work as forecasters for the National Weather Service (NWS) do a very good job and their websites for your local area are all that anyone needs. If you want a *no nonsense forecast* for your local area, go with the NWS websites and get it straight from the professionals.
When we lived in Bath, PA, the severe thunderstorm warnings were scary accurate, but as soon as we moved to Allentown, PA, that accuracy dropped considerably. Pretty much 19 out of 20 severe thunderstorm warnings don't actually lead to a thunderstorm. Most we've been getting is the sky getting dark, about 5 raindrops and then nothing else. It got so inaccurate that we started joking, "better water the plants, there's a severe thunderstorm warning."
I remember driving past the radio station in Trenton NJ, back in the 90s. The radio was telling me the weather was partly cloudy, and in the low 40s. Unfortunately for them, at that moment it was 28F, completely overcast _and snowing._ They'd have done much better if they had only opened a window and looked outside.
I like that you guys put the real ads front and center, first thing in the video, so that its out of the way and not interrupting the parody ads 😄 Thanks for making them more obviously *real* ads and making sure they're still entertaining to look at lol.
Cash back schemes make sense for participants that are spending someone else's money. Then it works like a classic kickback scam. The classic big business example is to book company flights to maximize "miles" rather than to minimize the cost to the company.
I'm a certified spotter and I can't tell you how frustrating it is to have some big thing predicted... and nothing happens. There was one big snowstorm that spooked my kid's school district so much that they preemptively closed the schools the night before. That morning I woke up, expecting to see a sea of white. I threw open the curtains to see... not a single flake had fallen and not one fell the entire day. Parents were pissed and the district never closed the schools that far ahead again.
I remember that happened in my area between 2011 - 2012. The public buses didn't run that day either. Better to trust in God rather than man. We don't know what tomorrow will bring.
Absolutely brilliant! That is so spot on, I love it! I get so tired of these meteorologist, spouting, terror and doom for routine storms, blizzards, hurricanes we've had for centuries. They will chase a storm and catch one little glimpse of it one tree down and say wow this is pretty bad!! Speaking of which, you are absolutely correct on forecast timeline. I don't trust anything more than 72 hours out. I'm a weather nut and the weather changes week by week as you get closer.
When I interned with a news station years ago, their meteorologist told me that he had like a 6 week course before taking the job, and that when he said "25%" or "50%" chance of rain that was based on how likely he felt it would be rather than some computer-generated stat. Other meteorologists mean that "25%" or "50%" of the area will experience rain. You have to crack the code to know what they mean! And funny enough, the news station I interned with experienced a jump in ratings on the day they DIDN'T cover thunderstorms because all three local news channels had been covering them all week and people just got bored with the other channels covering the same old afternoon storms again.
This is easily the best and most accurate fucking honest ad I've ever seen in my life. This deserves the single, non-commital share I gave it, and even earned the bonus of getting me to laugh and like the video. You deserve my subscription.

As someone who lives in hurricane alley(Central Florida), the sandbag part hit hard. Every year I watch people go crazy over them but since the news doesn't mention it most don't know that they're not meant to be used as water barriers but instead are meant to serve as weights to hold down tarps.
YES!!! Put the ad at the beginning (or end)!!! We WILL watch it...within reason. You were KILLING these wonderful bits by placing the ads in the middle of the segments. Thank you SO MUCH for reversing course on that decision! :thumbs up:
I haven’t watched broadcast television in years. I even watch the NFL highlights on TH-cam instead of watching the whole game on CBS/FOX/NBC/ABC/ESPN/NFL Network. I usually fall asleep if I have to watch the whole game. Especially the Super Bowl, where the two teams don’t play very hard because there is no “next game”. It’s just a ring, a bigger check and bragging rights (and a possible raise in salary)
Watching this as Hurricane Beryl is going to make landfall in the morning about 40 miles down the coast from here (I'm in the northeast quadrant, the "Dirty side") and this is so true. Can't count the number of these I have been through. The weather guys have scared the snot out of a bunch of the people around here to the point they are hording. As long as you don't live on the beach you will be fine.
Local weather/meteorologists can be super helpful. Ours has been here 30+ years, knows the local geography, weather patterns, how snowfall totals, fronts, and storms will end up. Many times the apps and weather websites are wrong and he is correct. National weather coverage is a whole nother thing....
You pretty much nailed it, all the hypocrisy and the shenanigans of TV people, try to make other people suffer for the sake of the ratings and the cash that comes with it....
Too accurate episode. It seems like this is situation in lots of countries, little warmer - "omg, apocalypse!", stronger rain - "omg we all are about to drown!"
Now to be fair. The more accurate weather predictor models cost money to access. And ad revenue from Jimmy's used cars isn't going to cut it. So using the resources that they have, it's better to air on the side of caution. And if you get a sensational story out of it, all the better
Wayne Mahar was our meteorologist in Central New York for decades. He's now down South during retirement, filling in for his local station down there. During a big storm in Buffalo, recently, he live streamed the weather - it was fascinating watching and hearing him explain what was going on
In Kansas, there's a saying if you dont like the weather. Wait 5 minutes. But on the flip side, the weather does get out of hand every year, all four seasons.
The frustration we have with meteorologists on predicting weather comes with how they tell you the weather jn your city. Say you live in San Antonio, and the weatherman gives you a 50% chance of rain. He would have to go "well, half of the city is at a 90% chance of rain, and the other half is at 10%, which I'll have to average out to say 50%". Now you step outside your house one one side of the city, it's sunny out, and you say "oh, the weatherman is always wrong", while someone on the other side of the city steps out to pouring rain and says "50% my ass, you could's swim in all of this! The weatherman's an idiot!" All the while he was just carrying standard practice.
The North Face rain shell was perfect. 😂 Here in Colorado you can watch people spend over $1500 to walk on less than 2" of snow😂 Sales are better than ever
I was raised on a farm and every morning my dad listened to the weather forecast. We got up and ate breakfast while listening. Because dad was a scientist.. Grandpa was a naturalist. We went to his place to cut some hay and he was sitting on the porch. He told us that it was going to rain and we couldn’t cut hay. Dad said the weatherman said it was going to be clear. Grandpa said…” the dairy cows were slow to leave the barn this morning and my arthritis is acting up.” It rained like a cow pissing on a flat rock. Grandma could taste snow coming and mom got a head ache when a storm was two days out.. But we all listened to the weather…
i use to work as an associate producer in tv news. weather is strictly a prediction of how weather and weather patterns picked up by radar will progress over the next few days based on what its done over a previous period of time. nothing more nothing less
Watching the Weather Channel has shown me just how quickly weather predictions change. I could watch the forecast right before bed and then the next morning, it says something completely different.

It rained like a cow pissing on a flat rock.
Grandma could taste snow coming and mom got a head ache when a storm was two days out..
But we all listened to the weather…
OMG... Horton hears some news.... good one. 🤪
I loved her final comment; "All that talk about sand bags made me really hungry."
You have convinced me to figure out how to receive broadcast TV signals.
Shoutout to donnie getting his moment in the sun, or rain.
i use to work as an associate producer in tv news. weather is strictly a prediction of how weather and weather patterns picked up by radar will progress over the next few days based on what its done over a previous period of time. nothing more nothing less
Watching the Weather Channel has shown me just how quickly weather predictions change. I could watch the forecast right before bed and then the next morning, it says something completely different.
I really was expecting this. I hate weather reports. Loved it 😂
