They've been warning about this for 2 weeks. Still nothing. About as accurate and reliable as a YouGov exit poll.

To be fair, it's the red top media that have been trying to whip up the frenzy, the Met Office weather reports have been accurate, as they invariably are these days.

So studying for a maths degree in my final year I have seen a mathematical proof that proofs it is literally impossible to predict the weather to 100% accuracy that been said I did not understand the proof and still do not.

I do know though that people much more able at maths and knowledgeable then myself have done this. Hence when the weather forecast says there is a 90% chance of rain it means 90% chance of rain not 100%.

I am pretty sure if someone did a statistics test on all there prior predictions with percentages they would find the weather forecasts are actually highly accurate.

A lot of people say the pollsters got it wrong on Trump vs Hillary and Brexit. again they never said there is 100% chance of a Clinton victory or 100% of the remain vote winning.

I am not so sure if Pollsters would do as well as the weatherman if we did a statistics test, but one thing that irks me is when people see a probability >50% and assume that this means it is 100% and if the event does not happen now the predictor was wrong.
