Weather Forecasting

What is up with the weather forecasting these days?
It's almost laughable at how frequently the forecast changes from hour to hour. And it's usually wrong.

The other day on my way to work I was listing to the radio and the weather came on, the forecast for that day was mix of sun and cloud with a change of rain in the afternoon and a possibility of a thunder storm. and later that morning they also included a tornado warning... why not just through in a chance of snow and cover all bases??? That way no matter what happens they can say they called for it.

Why bother with a 5 day forecast if they don't know, just tell me what the next day is gonna be cause at least they are a little more accurate with the day to day forecast.

I checked the weather channel a couple of weeks ago and it said that it was currently raining outside, I turned my head and looked out the window and it was a little cloudy and dry as a popcorn fart.
