I think it highly unlikely that weather.gov is faking it's forecasts in either direction.

  Is this a thing in the US, that people believe they're faking weather forecasts? It sounds utterly bizarre to me?

    Does it also sound bizarre that there are people that believe QAnon, fraudulent elections, lizard people in gov't leadership positions, flat earth, etc. These are actual things people believe in, so of course there will be people that believe the forecast is fake as well.

      Which sounds ridiculous as well. Many outside of the US think the place is changing for the worse, no question. There's a big problem when large contingents of people believe this stuff, no?

        Of course it's a problem. However, thinking that people won't believe in it is also a problem. It's kind of like rule 37 of the internet, if you can think it, it exists on the internet. with nutters, whatever the looniest thing you can come up with that you feel nobody would actually take you serious, there will be people that will grab on to it like it is truth incarnate.
