Why is it so difficult to accurately predict the weather, even with today’s advanced technology? In this video, we dive into the complexities of forecasting, from the unpredictable nature of El Niño to the butterfly effect of chaos theory. Learn how temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure interact in nonlinear ways and why even the most sophisticated weather models can’t capture all the details. We’ll explore the limitations of our data collection, the challenges of predicting extreme weather events like hurricanes and tornadoes, and the impact of phenomena like Milankovitch cycles and historical organisms like cyanobacteria and Azolla on our climate. Despite incredible technological advances, the chaotic nature of the atmosphere and data gaps still make perfect weather forecasting an elusive goal.
