Gravity is a theory. The affects of gravity are law. "If I drop something, it falls to the ground" - scientific law. "If I drop something, gravity pulls it to the ground" - scientific theory. Just because gravity remains theory doesn't make it any the less real or truthful.

Weather is volatile, unstable, I don't know where you get this "most weather has a pattern" crap. Not even with today's technology can we predict what kind of weather we're gonna have tomorrow (only with a high level of probability, never certainty).

I don't think the definite shift changes in seasonal weather patterns is a sign of the world ending.
However, I do wish it would stop progressing as quickly as it is. We got snow here in Philly today and it sucks.

ok then you seem highly inteligent, how do they predict the weather? how is it that they can track a storm and say what it will do next? how do they know what will happen tomorrow? radar can only do so much, it can show what has happend, whats happening, and what will take place in a few minutes. they look at the storm and what they believe will happen based on its past. so tell me, how do they track a storm?

I wasn't arguing its lack of validity...learn to read. Im saying peoples defensivness because of the word "theory" is unwarrented, its a scientific term that is used for other reasons.

I hate these boards...

what about the shrinking of the ice caps in greenland, that will rise sea level and probably kill thousands of people. Already the weather has killed people but if we don't vote Al Gore into presidency this will increase dramatically. Think about the weather one day it's 60 degrees the next it's 20 degrees, the freakin' plants are blossiming in JANUARY!. We need to turn it around and fast.

Ok, first of all, they can try to predict the general direction of a storm based on its past track. Try to predict because they can't predict with a 100% certainty where it will go or what its intensity will be. Second, they "predict" the weather based on various atmospheric occurrences, such as high and low pressure movements. That still doesn't mean weather has a pattern, it just means that once it happens, they can try to calculate or predict it's future development. That's why any weather forecast beyond 3-5 days is highly speculative and therefore basically bullshit.

ok and from what you just said, supports what i said, weather follows a pattern, based on a storms past movments and conditions and stability they track it. the storm will follow the the diffrent fronts most either follow or are ahead of, they will figure out a pattern from the storms past behavior and thats how they track the storm.
