Climatologists have supercomputers to predict the weather, but their models work very short term, a few days at best. Which is a good thing, their work is vital for air travel and hurricanes, however they're not always accurate, despite their advanced technology. For example, tomorrow will be 50% chance of rain... ok, that means 50% of no rain. You have similar odds flipping a coin!

Even for hurricanes, they can't get it right:

Dorian is expected to slow as it approaches Florida, but forecasters say it's too soon to determine where the greatest impacts will be.

It's all statistics. If they can't get things right for a few days, how can they predict anything 1 year, even 10 years from now?
