Computer modelling for weather forecasting, and indeed for climate forecasting, has reached its limits.

Some exceptionally strong blizzard conditiuons (sic) and very strong cold winds are likely in this period. This made it highly unlikely that Corbyn's very cold January forecast would come to fruition. Corbyn is also skeptical of the theory of Anthropogenic Global Warming and a dissenter in reports about the storms in Europe in 2000 and in Martin Durkin's documentary The Great Global Warming Swindle.

Piers Richard Corbyn (born 10 March 1947) is the owner of the business Weather Action which makes weather forecasts up to a year in advance and which he also used to bet on before being barred for making too much profit.
