"a weather forecast" and "a weather report" #1 (permalink) Fri Nov 13, 2009 19:15 pm   "a weather forecast" and "a weather report"		  
Dr. Torsten through his email asked me to post the following question: what differences are between "a weather forecast" and "a weather report?" Please feel free to post what is in your mind.

Here is my thought.

"a weather forecast" is tell people what a weather will be in the future. On the contrary, "a weather report" is just a summary of the weather in the past.

What do you think everyone?

I am not a meteorologist but agree with Lily and can additionally say that weather reports should be evidential or results of some scientific-regression analysis. I mean they can be produced upon some facts. On the other hand, weather forecasts could be produced from different tools which can be a weather satellite or a simple barometer.
