Today most people are less sensitive to changes in the weather, as they can simply tune into weather reports whose accuracy is assured by weather stations distributed across the country. Data and information are collected from all these stations and after they are analyzed a forecast is made.
現代人多已不識天象變化，要想知道天氣如何，就得聽取氣象播報，而氣象播報的內容及準確性，又得依賴分佈全國各地的氣象觀測站，將各地所得的數據和資料經過整合、分析後，才能加以判斷。
