Geezer alert: forecasts look amazingly good to me. When I was a kid in the Pacific Northwest, it was routine to miss major storms until they hit land. We didn't have satellites, oceanic buoys, etc., and I remember the TV weather guy saying things like "we've had a report from a ship at sea..." and proceeding to make wild guesses.
