Weather forecasts are very reliable for up to a week, with accuracy declining sharply beyond 10 days.
Short-term weather forecasts are about 90-95% accurate, but accuracy drops to around 80% for a week out and much lower for long-range predictions.
Weather forecasting combines atmospheric data collection, computer modeling, and meteorologist analysis to predict future conditions.
