Weather forecasting has very little in common with climate modeling. An average temperature for a date that might be predicted to rise by a degree in 50 years varies by many times that for a given date.
Why do you say that? Climate models extend weather models by adding additional parameters which vary over time (like atmospheric chemistry.)
