12. Major event forecasting is probably the hardest thing we have to do,
because those are the events that people remember
13. If you blow the snowstorm and you say 20 inches in new York, it hits 20
inches in new jersey instead,people only remember that you said 20 in new
York, an it didn’t happen.
14. Explain to me weather forecasting
15. We have computer models that literally tried to forecast what’s going to
happen
16. And then we believe those models
17. If the models are wrong, we are wrong.

18. Then problem with the models are that you can’t put all the data in, or
if you had everything in the world into the model
19. It would take you four days to make a one day forecast
20. Right now one of the models that we used, the best model in the world
has 22 layers, 22 layers of the atmosphere
21. Do you think the layers ( INAUDIBLE) are 22?
22. No , there is infinite number of layers of the atmosphere,but we have
to break it down to 22
23.The parameters of the weather model are vast

24. We have temperature at the ground, we have temperures in the mid-levelll,

temperatures a loft, how big the jet stream is,what humidity is
25. What the wind direction is, what the water tempertures are,
26. Where the mountains are, where the low pressure is, where the hight
pressure is
27. All of those factors fit in
28. And so,what we have is, a model that says, if this today then this tomorrow.
29. And then if this tomorrow, then this the next day
30. And if the first day is wrong, all the way down the model is wrong.

37. No ,because you can’t prepare for the best case scenario, you could
only prepare for the worst
