Is it me or have the weather forecasts, specifically the prediction of rain gotten much worse in the last few years?

I feel it all boils down to fraud and the enablement thereof. We're comfortable with black boxes and soothsayer types who claim only they understand the inscrutable. In contrast to the discipline described here; it is either deterministic or it isn't.
There is also the case of just changing the measurements (relatively quietly) to meet whatever narrative necessary. When there is a tornado or earthquake now, I have no idea what the severity is. Those scales have been replaced but the news will tout the new measurement as if it was the same number.
