How Far Ahead Can Meteorologists Forecast the Weather?

I'm a 44 year veteran broadcast meteorologist based in Buffalo since 1984, but also having worked previously in Bangor, Wichita, Tampa, and Detroit. I grew up in Hudson County NJ, yet was never indicted by a federal grand jury. I now work mainly as a weather/climate writer for the Buffalo News. On the side, I have been a gag writer for a long time NYC radio personality and was twice recommended by Johnny Carson's Head Writer to be hired onto his staff. I'm proud to say I was PERSONALLY passed over by the Head Writer's boss--Johnny. How many people can say that?
