The dear basketball king is pissed at the weather forecasters in the infernal kingdom for getting the weather wrong. Here's a question should the forecasters fear that they could soon be eating an 88mm mortar shell? After all the grand poobah won't except failure.
What's the accuracy of an actual weather forecast? About 3 hours or so. Given that the supreme being of North Korea expects unconditional perfection, if I were a North Korean meteorologist I'd been high tailing it for China about now.

North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un has censured his country's weather service for "incorrect" forecasts in a rare public dressing down of a government body in the reclusive nation, which suffers regular natural disasters.
Kim criticised the science used in observations and called for the use of modern equipment in the unusual rebuke, which came during an inspection of the Hydro-meteorological Service, the official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported Tuesday.
"There are many incorrect forecasts as the meteorological observation has not been put on a modern and scientific basis," Kim said, urging the agency to "fundamentally" improve its work and equipment.
Accurate forecasts are needed to protect the "lives and properties" of people from disasters caused by "abnormal climatic phenomenon", he said.
