I've come to trust weather forecasts, at least in recent years as they could be relied on to predict rain in the days ahead. I have found, however, that weather forecasts can be outright confusing here in Israel. For the most part, one can say sunny and dry and be right 95% of the time without any clue of the actual meteorological conditions. However, winter is the rainy season and there is the occasional shower.
This past weekend, we had plans to tour Jerusalem's open air market and an almond orchard. Checking the weather forecasts the day before, there were three different forecasts by three different websites for the following day. One said rainy all day. The other said sunny. Even the morning of, all three sites said something different for that very day.
It turned out to be cloudy and rainy. We enjoyed our day in Jerusalem anyways.
