Correct answer: "Forecasts might need to be changed when they get new data."
Explanation: meteorologists constantly receive new observations and model output; as conditions evolve those inputs can change the expected outcome, so forecasts are updated (synchronized) to remain useful. The other two statements are incorrect: forecasts are not inherently never accurate (they have uncertainty but often have useful skill), and forecasts are predictions made before the weather happens, not only afterward.
