I'm of course hearing this second- or third-hand, but when I read 'evolution of weather systems' I substitute for 'cellular automata'/'Conway's game of life', vaguely recall them as being Turing-complete, then smile and nod and get back to ignoring the article.

It's handwavy but I can't help but think that because of the way symbolic dynamics works that you can't find families of approximating functions inside turbulence even though I can't see it being practical, like sensitive dependence on initial conditions will make noise overwhelm your ability to take measurements.
