The weather depends on so many conditions that it is not possible to account for them all in any model.

Weather can be predicted dependably by computational models for weeks into the future.

The weather behaves randomly, and scientists do not know why any weather patterns exist, which is why weather predictions are impossible.

Accuracy increases the farther you are from the day’s weather you are predicting, so long term predictions are usually correct.

Answer 1

"The weather depends on so many conditions that it is not possible to account for them all in any model." — True.

Brief explanation: weather models approximate the atmosphere and use parameterizations for small-scale processes; they cannot include every detail and small errors grow over time (chaos), limiting reliable deterministic forecasts to about a week or so.
