Not at all.  Climate is a long term average over a wide area, and tends
to be predictable, whereas day-to-day weather for any given location is
chaotic.  I point this out because the fact that you don't understand it
to me means all your other rationalizations are suspect.

To use an automotive example, I can say with pretty high certainty that
if I average the fuel economy of my Ford over an entire year, it will
get very close to 20 mpg.  However, if I try to specify what my fuel
economy for any given day is, I could be way off, because I might get
stuck in a traffic jam and spend a lot of time idling.
