Rare warming over Antarctica reveals power of stratospheric models

  This weather pattern has made for a much cooler southern hemisphere spring this year, at least down in New Zealand where I live.

  Weather forecasting seems to be glorified pattern matching, with gaps and differences filled by physics models. Neural nets are way way better at pattern matching... Yet nobody seems to use them for weather yet. Why?
