List three reasons that rain predictions made by meteorologists are sometimes incorrect

Answers

there are several reasons that rain predictions made by meteorologists are sometimes incorrect, such as :
- Too many factors that could cause the rain
- Some of those factors could easily change in a short period of time
- We still hasn't developed  a 100% solid method to make the prediction

hope this helps

The three reasons could be the following:


1) Relying on computers and not going to the field. Sometimes a technical or software fault could lead to a wrong prediction. it could be a new forecaster who does not know the weather patterns and so follows the computer model instead of stepping outside and actually feeling the weather


2) The atmosphere always changes with natural disasters occurring such as pollutants in the air that make forecasting difficult.


3) Most of the times meteorologists base their forecasts on probability. Because of differences in the climate, those temperatures are not the same, so errors occur.

What is the climate of most of Central and Eastern Europe?a. Mainly tundra and taiga zones
b. Mainly humid-continental with cool summers
c. Mainly steppe and desert with warm summers
d. Mainly dry and warm with arctic winters

Answers

The correct answer is - b. Mainly humid-continental with cool summers.

Most of Central and Eastern Europe are dominated by the continental climate, though it has to be pointed out that the amount of rainfall is bigger than what it is the standard for the continental climate types, thus it is humid continental.

The reason why the climate is of this type in this regions is that it is mostly under the influence of the continental air masses, but since Europe's coastline often gets deeper into the mainland, there's also influence from the sea, which results in higher precipitation than usual.

The summers are usually dry but not very hot, while the winters are snowy and with pretty low temperatures. The spring and autumn are the most rainy periods, with having milder temperatures.
The climate of most of Central and Eastern Europe is B) Mainly humid-continental with cool summers.
