Default Metcheck (the facts)

Will :
NOAA provide the 100 day (just over 3 months forecast) on which that winter
forecast was based.


Given what's widely accepted to be true here, i.e. that no forecast beyond
around a fortnight is worth anything (due to chaos), why does a reputable
organisation bother to produce these?

It's all very well calling them "experimental" but if we have a theory
which says they can't have any worth - which we do - surely they are
wasting their time.

Or do they make money from these too?
