'Weather', the word, has some interesting history.
The word for Weather was originally Whether. And for good reason.
Weather was called Whether because of uncertainity.
It was used synonymously with the word 'whether', that we all know, for ages, before somebody decided that there was money in it. These chaps decided that they needed to modify the spelling to gain respectability.
And thus Whether became Weather.
So the chaps on TV or the Radio station are only Whether Forecasters. And as we all know from Heisenberg's uncertainity principle, Uncertainity cannot be accurately forecast.
Heisenberg was himself quite uncertain of the whole thing but he couldn't blame himself for that, as he had already proved that uncertainity was not predictable, unless it was. But one could never tell, for sure.
So don't worry about the Weather/Whether in Pondicherry or wherever else you are going, but do pack an umbrella.

Heisenberg, uncertainty paper, 1927 Or, to put it simply :
Ek ka pata toh dooja laapata { to understand the true poignance of this situation please watch Hindi movies where the mother/elder sibling/father/benevolent maid etc etc realize that they have lost one or more little children at the Kumbh Mela
(which, incidentally, was invented by Rajshree Productions as a film setting for losing kids/parents/lovers etc. The Kumbh Mela as such has no historical relevance and was initially created as a film set in the 1930's before it grew into popular legend and culture as a place where pious people performed rituals in the water and young voyeurous lechers checked out all the women in their wet clothes. Its a good thing though and everyone goes home satisfied) }
The idea behind
Heisenberg's Uncertainity principle, struck Heisenberg as he finished cooking an elegant meal for himself. This thought, though, enabled him to create prize winning science papers, while most of us just add more salt when struck by the very same thought ,
