We just don’t have that kind of predictive capability, yet, as weather systems are dynamic/chaotic.
Many times I’ve left the house with no prediction of precipitation, and been caught out. And I use multiple weather apps, including radar apps.
That’s existed since at least the 60’s, maybe even earlier.
And electric clocks used to get their timing from the frequency of the electrical system, and power companies would compensate for any daily variations by changing the frequency over night so any timing systems would be back in sync.
Commercial buildings often used these kinds of clocks.
