#2Global climate change => higher air temperatures => more water in the air => more water available to fall out of the air.

=> more snow in winter => mini ice age

The most powerful supercomputers in the world are focused on weather analysis and they can only project a few days out. Yet, some people think they've got it figured out.

That does put things into perspective, a bit.

The most powerful supercomputers in the world are not even close in processing power of a 4 year old. Isn't it possible that some people can see patterns that the supercomputers can't?

Should we expect dry (arid) regions around the world to experience more rainfall?

Sure, but those supercomputers aren't autonomous, they're programmed and designed by thousands of human adult experts.

Climate vs. weather.
With many natural systems, we can understand qualitative elements of the system, at least in part. Of course, the long run general equilibrium may be quite drier.

This is a bit like comparing the use of a supercomputer as a virtual wind tunnel to a prediction like "the airplane will fall to the ground when it's engines die".
