I can remember when 4 day forecast was big news (good for 2 days). what we have now is amazingly good and getting better consistently. Love the explanations keep it up :)
I'm not complaining about the accuracy. 👍 Last week's rainfall outlook proved almost spot on here in Geelong. The big line of showers moved through and it rained much more to the NW and SE of us, just as forecast. We got around 12mm.
The rain is most welcome Phil in Victoria. My garden sure needs it. Love your forecasting. It’s most accurate of all others. Appreciate the effort and can hardly wait until you guys develop an app for Australia!!
Hey Phil, I find your readings that accurate in the law of probabilities that I always click on your reads, you give insigjts into why something is happening as well, some people probably want the winning numbers to lotto too, ah well can't please some, but I'm pleased enough that I can plan my week with your info, great work Phil, power to you, cheers
Your readings of the weather are very clear, not every reader has your communication skills, the BOM in OZ has an insecure web site so I don't trust them..😮😂😂😂
Hi Phil, you remind me of the old joke in my youth (40+ years ago): Q: "What's the only job where you can be wrong 85% of the time & still have a job the following week?" A: " Weather forecasting!" Back then, we were lucky if a forecast went 2 days and the 2nd was a bit hit or miss. NOW you're pushing out to 7 days, some try for 10, and you warn us that the 6th & 7th aren't locked in. That's an amazing improvement in less than ½ a century, and I for one appreciate it. 😊 thanks, and may it snow in your hometown everyday next July.😂😂😂
A lot of the anger is due to climate alarmism Phil. When we consider the inaccuracies of of short term predictions and then we are told to trust the science for global climate predictions that just do not come about, some of just end up deriding these 'experts'. But, I love your work and your attitude Phil.
At the risk of appearing ungrateful at meteorologists' attempts at predicting rainfall in South West Victoria, I'm wondering if you know why they have gotten so bad at it in recent years (other than the obvious "climate change" broad answer)? I've lived here on and off for nearly 50 years and have always been able to rely on the BOM to get it mostly right within about 5mm; but the last few years have been so wildly inaccurate at long, medium and short-term rainfall forecasting it's functionally useless. It's as though the region has become a huge rain shadow. I get more reliable results from looking at the lowest whole number predicted (eg 0-15mm would have the lowest whole number of 1), halve that and add 0.2mm. 9 times out of 10 that gets me closer to the actual rainfall.... within 2mm.... than even halfway betweet the BOM's ridiculously broad forecast. Why aren't the models working?
Phil I would be very interested on your opinion of how much Geotechnical engineering is affecting our weather. Certainly there is an enormous amount of interference happening in the northern hemisphere. It is very obvious from the cloud formations and the amount of chemtrails. There are so many different agencies playing with our weather using different techniques.
When will you do a show on the geoengineering that you mentioned?, you said thats a discussion for another day! Im concerned that the technology to manipulate the weather is so advanced that at best its a deralict of duty for the scientists to not be controlling it for our benefit, and at worst nepharious bad actors are controlling it for a pollitical agenda, ie- climate change, could you please adress that technology?
@ezlow1065 yes Dane is at the forefront of exposing it but im really tired of being taken as a fool for asking the simple questions whilst intelligent people in positions of influence allude to the existance of the agenda yet never follow through with the deep dive into it. We are in west qld, we need rain so bad and all the properties are being bought up by huge carbon companies that are in on the scam clearly and all the towns and citizens suffer needlessly. I love having Phil do these weather reports the way he does, for us, weather dictates our lives out here. But i know Phil will not touch this subject for the same reasons nobody else does.
Mindblowing, indeed. Thank you Phil from Central Victoria

"Hit and miss" works for us Aussies. Thanks
Thanks Phil
You're doing a brilliant job
Thanks Phil..you do a top job of forecasting!!!...from Cairns
Thanks Phil, great info, great presentation, always enjoy
I'm not complaining about the accuracy. 👍

It really is mind-blowing how accurate it is.
Unlike BOM.
Thanks Phil 😊

I have to say, the first map is really great for people that are flying north too. Thanks mate.
Thanks Phil and yep we use the term hit and miss as well plus you can’t please everyone with what is forecasted☀️🌧️ ✈️
People who complain just don't understand the science! Great report mate!
you do a 100% perfect weather forecast

When people asked me to give them a winning lotto ticket... I always ensured the numbers they got were correct... for the previous draw. 😮
thanks mate, as always, well done
Thanks Philip we would love some rain 🌧 in Adelaide so very dry!!
Brilliant! Thanks :-))
cheers Phil
Your readings of the weather are very clear, not every reader has your communication skills, the BOM in OZ has an insecure web site so I don't trust them..😮😂😂😂
Thank you 😊 SA
Ironically, YT has put a translate to English option under your comment😂. Must be a SA thing. But He is a great presenter too!!

Thanks Phil! Glad we’re starting to dry out in SE Qld nothing but mud last week and a half (ducks LOVE it, the goats HATE it lol)
Australia's BOM has just upgraded their computing.
Yes, they use the term 'Hit-and-Miss' in Australia. We use willy willy for dust devils also.
This is lucky Phil
Hi Phil didn't get any rain in wallaroo south Australia we need it badly 😮
Phil I live in murray bridge SA and we never got any rain over the weekend
Vinaka Phil !
In my life time weather predictions are a lot less hit and miss.
From Torrington NSW 2371
Please turn the tap off, Phil. I'm wet enough. :(
Totaly aree. Accuracy is great for planatary systems that are changing.
Phil, hit and miss is used in Aus.
Also, when you fly from Sydney to LA, you arrive before you departed, not 10 minutes later. 🤯 🤔 😆
Yes, we do Phil

Did you see the latest prediction on possible sea level rise,lol, that's alarming.

Will Taiwanese umbrella protect me during the next 6 days?

Why did you send so much rain to my place? I'm sure that it's your fault. What can one do apart from keep trying?
Complaining just tells me they are flat earthers 🤦

checkout Dane Wiginton he's been right into it for many years 😉

We want sunshine in Victoria..its glumey
LOL "Hit and miss" is rhyming slang for taking a pis
