Firstly, thank you for arriving at this page and taking the actual time to read our story. My name is James, and this is how my name appears on my birth certificate, but some people who know me personally also refer to me as "Jimmy" or "Jim."
Please also scroll from left to right on the provided proof images sections below (there are several).
The Exacta Weather story began at the end of November 2010 when I registered the domain name ExactaWeather.com (a whole month prior to the confirmation of the coldest December in 100 years in 2010).
Prior to this, I used to be a long-distance runner and was crowned a British Champion at my highest level after finishing 12th overall and personally securing team gold out of over 300 elite athletes from across the UK and Ireland in 1999.
I much preferred road running and had a few decent and unashamed 2nd place finishes to exceptional runners in my time in the Garstang 2 mile (11:11 minutes), the Blackpool 2 mile (under 11 minutes), and a decent 4th at the Caldervale 4 mile road race (23 minutes) in a very competitive field (see provided images).
I did manage to win the Kirkby Lonsdale QE2 annual road race after two previous 2nd place finishes (third time lucky), and I also won the Lancaster 2 mile road race around the same time (see provided images).
Other notable runs included an individual bronze in the Lancaster/Lancashire schools championships for cross-country, the winner of the Saracens Head Annual Road Race (first overall male and first boy), and a first 100 finish and first male junior in the Blackpool 10K out of several thousand runners.
I also won the team gold medal among a group of elite national and county runners for the mid-Lancs cross-country and athletics league for three consecutive years, in addition to team gold in the County Championships for cross-country and road racing with the same group of elite runners from Lancaster (see provided images).
However, I was also hampered with some repetitive and undiagnosed abdominal injuries that later required surgery and definitely impaired my performance around this time, forcing me into an unfavourable position in terms of competing competitively and passionately and not being able to perform consistently to the best of my ability towards my late teens due to this injury.
My final ever race and the race of my life therefore came at the Men's BCS National Championships in 1999 over a gruelling course distance of 7.5 km, when my finishing position just outside the top 10 of this elite field of over 300 competitors secured us the team gold as Champions of Britain.
However, credit where credit is due, and despite my finishing position securing the team gold as the fourth and final team counter out of a team of six for us to become the Champions of Britain, three other team members and nationally recognised runners also finished ahead of me in the top ten that day (one from Lancaster and two from Sedbergh), and their efforts should also be honoured in recognition of this achievement, and they are Lee Siemaszko (who came 5th overall), Russell Parrington, and Stuart Reid (also see above images and scroll left to right for proof of claims).
What a race to finish your career on, though!🥇
You are probably wondering at this point what my running career and sports background have to do with the weather, but it was my running career that peaked my interest in the weather to begin with, as I will explain.
Unfortunately, as an 8-9 stone wet-through athlete back in the day, the weather was either my best or worst friend and very important to my overall performance, particularly for long-distance cross-country races I competed in. The weather therefore played an important role, and muddy and soft terrain conditions never really suited me or allowed me to perform to the best of my ability and were much more suited to the bigger and stronger competitors I was racing against. However, hard or hard and cold conditions on the ground suited me and sort of allowed me to glide and perform much better overall.
I paid extra close attention to the TV, Ceefax, Teletext, newspaper (I used to read every weather and climate article in every national newspaper on my paper round for several years), and radio weather forecasts from a young age to try and establish how the weather conditions were likely to be for the upcoming weekend and various seasons before the days of the internet. However, I soon realised that this was to little or no avail and became quite obsessive about how often the professionals used to get it wrong and how frequently they changed their forecasts from literally one day to the next.
I therefore decided to design my own weather programme on my old Commodore 64 computer (this was the 80's and early 90's and again in the days before the internet), and even though it only gave a handful of possible outcomes and went no further than five days ahead, it proved much more reliable and accurate for my running career in this five-day timeframe than chasing the ever-changing forecasts around from third parties and elsewhere.
Global warming also peaked my interest in the weather further just after the millennium, particularly projections suggesting cold winters and snow were set to be a thing of the past in and around this same timeframe, something I firmly used to believe myself. However, the more and more I started heavily researching this subject and solar, ocean, and historical weather data and cycles from in and around 2005, it became evidently clear to me that most of the science surrounding global warming does not actually stack up historically, cyclically, geologically, or in terms of how solar factors and the sun impact our weather trends (the biggest player in our weather and climate).
Academically speaking, and due to my sporting career and background, my initial career studies and academic qualifications were all sports- or sport-science-related. However, my work and passion for the weather have always brought me great joy, and I also used to be a regular requester of weather and climate information through the BBC and Met Office in the days before the internet and also from a very young age.
In addition to this, I also completed a foundation degree as a mature student before progressing to the Natural Sciences/Geography at degree level. I am also so fascinated and obsessed with weather that I even tried my utmost to carry out my university research project on how solar activity and ocean behaviour impact long-range weather patterns. After initially being accepted for this and completing the literature review for it after several months of input and hard work, I was told a few weeks prior to the literature review deadline that it was no longer an option and that I had to change it to a microclimate research project instead.
So technically, I'm not a trained or standard meteorologist, but I really don't see why Earth processes and my extensive knowledge of solar activity, ocean behaviour (Gulf Stream/Pacific Decadal Oscillation), and other natural scientific factors can't be applied to moderate- to long-range weather and climate forecasting with some respectable level of success. Particularly when I also implement historical and repetitive weather and climate data that can easily identify long-term trends and major periods of heat or cold from quite far ahead on many occasions.
However, conventional meteorologists are also very restricted in how far ahead they can forecast and how they are schooled in their beliefs about global warming. This is where I don't feel restricted and have to comply with what, in my opinion, are the wrong beliefs about global warming and how it is rammed down our throats. However, I feel I have found a way around this, and the proof is sort of in the pudding with some of my long-range forecasting accolades, as I will cover below. I also have extensive personal knowledge of historical weather patterns and much of the science behind current and historical solar activity patterns and ocean behaviour, particularly the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) cycles and the Gulf Stream.
It is also true that I am a one-man band with my own forecasting methodology and simply work from home with no more than my two laptops. However, surely this is some kind of decent feat with all the money invested in expensive supercomputers that haven't been able to forecast many of the heatwaves and major cold spells that our forecasts have for exact dates repeatedly and from several months ahead of occurrence.
More supercomputers are also not the answer here, and global warming literally has no weight whatsoever. We have returned to major periods of cyclical and predictable cooling from low solar activity changes and their knock-on effects from ocean changes consistently and repeatedly in the past. The Medieval Warm Period (MWP) was also a good several degrees warmer than today, and we still returned to a major period of cooling, and the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere is literally too minimal to have any bearing on or override these bigger climate players and long-term weather and solar patterns in the future.
Our long-term solar projections also show a return to colder winters and a more southerly driven jet stream due to low solar activity, Gulf Stream changes, and cold PDO phases to start to make a return and heighten concerns around future solar activity projections from in and around 2026–28. If global warming is truly to be believed, then why have these same forecasters not been able to identify the same record hot spells that we forecast from several months ahead over the past decade or so, particularly the hottest summer ever in 2018 and the hottest September ever in 2023? The causality is therefore entirely wrong on their part.
However, the first time this forecasting methodology allowed me to identify and pinpoint any major warm or cold spells was during the 2009/10 and 2010/11 periods with the correct succession of indications for cool and wet summer and cold winter periods, despite polar opposite warm summer and mild winter long-range forecasts from the Met Office at a similar or later date to myself. This gained me some significant interest in my YouTube channel, which has received over 223K views from just several videos around this time, and the following blog also exceeded 500K views since this period from around 2009.

These successive and accurate long-range weather forecasts also brought me my first pieces of media coverage within this developing period and during November and December of 2010, prior to the coldest December in 100 years occurring.
I also appeared on BBC One during early December 2010 in reference to my several-month forecast from August of that same year (3–4 months ahead) and in reference to the earlier November cold and snow and the coldest December in 100 years (see below links).

Unfortunately, my first ever major long-range forecasting errors came during the winter of 2011/12 and via the national news and Daily Express front page by name (which still hurts to look at today).
However, you are only ever as good as your next news front page, and the following and my next national news front page came on the Daily Express in early 2012, covering the coldest and wettest summer in 100 years due to a more southerly driven jet stream in May (2–3 months ahead of occurrence).
Met Office article from summer 2012 review (2 months after our front page) explaining the more southerly driven jet stream.

March 2013
My several-month March 2013 forecast also highlighted a potentially record-breaking period for cold and snow in the following PDF document for subscribers below.
March 2013 PDF dated forecast link below:
https://exactaweather.com/march-2013-forecast
https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-22010852.amp
Additionally, this particular long-range forecast for March 2013 was also shared with several climatologists at my hometown university not long after the issue and a good 3–4 months ahead of the actual occurrence. It was shortly after this and several meetings with these climatologists that I was offered a large research grant and scholarship opportunity within the famously world-renowned university, which I painstakingly declined due to the terms being offered in regard to Exacta Weather and how my methodology was to be implemented and revealed within a 'shared names' scientific paper.
My next correct national newspaper front page by name came in early 2014 for the first major warm spell of the year and temperatures in the low 20s for in and around ten days via the Daily Mirror.
However, this particular front page news article featuring myself received some controversial criticism, and cries of "bad journalism" and "check your facts" were used within the following media postings at the time (see below), only for them to be reporting upon a warm and settled spell of weather exactly ten days later and beyond themselves. I even received a congratulatory email from the Daily Mirror office on the exact day of the summery weather arriving.
https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/uk-weather-britain-heading-first-3499753
I'm also not looking for sympathy here but more to relay the truth and stick true to the title of this page, but it was also around 2014 that I became really ill and spent several years in and out of some lengthy hospital stays, and the hospital literally became my second home. I was eventually diagnosed with Crohn's disease in late 2014, and life has been a bit of an uphill struggle since this diagnosis and getting the right treatments.
Unfortunately, I spent a lot of time on steroids and ballooned from a healthy 12 stone man for my height to being well overweight at 15 stone (I am 11-12 again now, can vary due to my medication). The long-term use of steroids to reduce my time in the hospital also had a significant bearing on other health conditions, and I was later diagnosed with osteoporosis and Cushing's disease. Additionally, I was also diagnosed with another serious condition called avascular necrosis and was told that I would be losing both my hips at just 40 years old, in addition to major spinal surgery to completely remove discs L5 and S1 in recent years.
My Avascular Necrosis specialist has also informed me to prepare to be wheelchair bound from early in my 50's (I'm currently 42) unless technology advances somewhat in this period. Again, I am not after any sympathy here but more to relay the truth of my situation, and personally, I feel it is what it is and the cards I've been dealt in life, and there are people who are in a much worse off position than myself throughout this world.
It is also within these dates that I got several successive cold winter forecasts completely wrong after miscalculating the rises in solar activity from the current solar cycle.
However, the last several months seem to have brought about a change for the better in the stability of my overall condition and in terms of my relationship with the weather, along with an important change in my IBD/Crohn's medication, and this appears to be just what I needed to gain back some quality of life and improve my overall mental state from all that has been thrown at me in recent years. I actually feel rather lucky now despite taking a hefty amount of medication each day to manage my health conditions, as I was literally thinking that my life was over at the lowest ebb of my ongoing and repeated Crohn's flare-ups and all the additional major operations and serious hospital time I inherited due to my treatment of the disease.
My Crohn's now appears to be more under control and has given me a better lease of life, and despite being quite restricted from the hip and major spinal surgeries physically, I can put a concentrated and measured effort mentally into my passion for weather and long-range weather forecasting.
Despite these hindrances, I kept my toe in the long-range weather forecasting within this period and to the present day, and this also allowed me to identify the exceptionally hot summer of 2018 and the timings of the heatwaves several months in advance including the exact timing of the hottest day ever (40.3C in 2022) from quite far ahead.
https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/breaking-uk-weather-2018-englands-13186020
Additionally, I also featured this in the following national news articles, in reference to my quoting it as "the hottest summer ever" a good few months before its occurrence in 2018 and ahead of any official and final confirmation of this.
Unfortunately, in late 2021, tragedy struck my hometown of Lancaster and me personally when one of my best friends from school and for many years afterwards was killed during Storm Arwen.
Rob was an absolute genuine and salt of the earth guy who also had a passion for walking and the weather, in addition to being a very talented footballer that I had the privilege to play with for many years at Greaves FC (see images in story section).
Rob was only 40 years of age, and he left behind a young daughter, his partner, an absolutely loving and close-knit family, and many friends.
Rob's favourite charity, Reuben's Retreat, is accepting direct donations in memory of him and is a great cause to donate towards, and is also a charity I donate regularly to myself (see given gain link below + future donations from Exacta Weather/myself will also be announced).
Reuben's Retreat supports families with complexly poorly children and families of child loss.
https://www.reubensretreat.org/
A recent charity event from some of Rob's closest friends and family members also raised several thousand pounds for Reuben's Retreat in memory of him.

Thank you to those who have so far taken the time out to donate to this worthy charity and for a more than worthy cause in Rob's memory...
Also, thank you to those who take the time out to donate in the future too...
However, my long-range forecasts for 2023 retained high accuracy throughout much of the year and after identifying the hottest day ever in 2022 (40.3C), I then strongly identified a major and early record-breaking heatwave for June that would see temperatures topping out at never-seen-before 36–38 Celsius for this period.
Additionally, my forecasts for September 2023 repeated for much of the year that we could be facing an exceptionally warm to hot month overall and a potentially record-breaking period of heat.

This correct forecast for the record September period was also met in the face of adversity once again, and the Met Office stated that it was "impossible" to forecast this far ahead in the same news article as me below from several months ahead in May 2023.
https://www.plymouthherald.co.uk/news/plymouth-news/met-office-say-african-plume-8437440
In fact, 2023 was probably my most successful forecasting period ever and since starting Exacta Weather in 2010, and in addition to these two record periods of heat, my forecasts also identified the mild and stormy October, the exact dates for the early November storm, the cold and snow at the end of November/early December, and the mild and unsettled weather thereafter.

Additionally, I also identified the exact timing of two SSW events several months in advance in 2023, despite lots of earlier ridicule and others stating how difficult such things are to predict from several days ahead, never mind several months.

I have additionally been featured in many other newspapers by name on the front page for correct storm dates, wintry blasts, and heatwaves, as well as next to important figures such as the Queen, Theresa May (as PM), and Donald Trump (as President) below.
Plus x 2 Irish Daily Mirror front pages by name for snow events (scroll right below).
Royal wedding 2018 correct forecast and commentary from myself via national news and media sources from several days ahead (also scroll right below).
More front pages and correct weather events to follow shortly.
We have now reached the point where I have to inevitably cover something quite concisely and raw to myself in terms of 'big tech vs. small tech' and 'trolls' in terms of Exacta Weather and several other things that need addressing.
Unfortunately, we are now in the era of big tech vs. small tech, with the internet giving nobody's a vile and viscous voice, and Exacta Weather is no exception to this, as I will explain.
I have addressed this several times over the last few months with quite extensive posts about the Met Office and how they can behave quite sneakily towards me, particularly in regards to how they can promote my 'amended' forecasts (amending forecasts is something I don't do that often and something they can do on a daily basis).
On 3 out of 4 occasions below, they were wrong (Met Office) about snow later in the month in November/early December 2023 and snow in parts of southern England in March 2024 when I questioned them about both weather events at least several days to a few weeks beforehand and in what is only very short-range weather forecasting.
Unfortunately, they have been doing this to me for some time now, and it used to work pretty well for them until I started feeling somewhat better in myself and I was able to commit more time to the weather again and start calling them out on their obvious and untoward behaviour towards me. I have also said this before, and I'll say it again, but it really is beyond me what the 200+ staff (2000+ worldwide), which is funded by the public, do in that office in Exeter all day.
A classic example of this big tech vs. smaller tech is also plain to see recently.
The BBC quoted me for a snow event to occur on February 8, 2024, several days earlier, when it wasn't showing in third-party projections or on their own website (my own followers even questioned why they had quoted this when their website said otherwise), and then they removed this when the snow event did actually happen on these dates.
https://www.facebook.com/100063588901621/posts/pfbid025ophQmEod2UX8RoscA1AfPTjs9NDYKguKKhdgcwwKnD9QYHnsUeQ3YdVhADGu3xLl/
https://www.facebook.com/100063588901621/posts/pfbid02D53etTFYLugDXMcUsCRcim4pGvFjGqiNnBkaZMMZF95yRgKj3UeqhgsvnJGj6Zaml/
Personally, I don't really like the BBC and am glad they removed the quote and have actually refused any further work from them, despite multiple offers for TV and radio work and since the disgusting Savile saga developed in late 2012. I know it's not fair to tarnish everyone with the same brush, but my head can't get around what happened in those BBC buildings and the number of people who turned a blind eye to it.
However, another classic case of big tech vs. little tech is here, and I am going to stick up for myself whenever this happens in the future and when others try to paint me in a bad light from now on. The BBC has absolutely no right to have a go at anyone, particularly someone who is just predicting the weather and doing a better job than them with little or no resources in terms of long-term predictability (fact).
Another clear example of this is the several articles from the likes of the Guardian, Observer (does anyone read this), and the BBC from several years ago.
Firstly, none of the articles have absolutely anything on me whatsoever if you read them, with the exception of some incorrect forecast details. Every single one of these media outlets has some type of agenda to follow towards global warming, something that I strongly and vehemently refute; unfortunately, it's just going to take several years for the next solar cycle to kick in to prove this. Additionally, these same media outlets have since used and quoted me for several hot and cold weather events, if you check on Google.
At this point, it is also worth covering some further and obvious big tech vs. small tech signals from the main search engines, such as Google. I am literally in tens of thousands and thousands of correct and viral weather articles for the search term "James Madden Exacta Weather," yet it is these handful of articles from Met Office-loving and biassed warmists that falsely portray me in a bad light that rank first overall. How is that a fair ranking system on the basis of article numbers and my previous correct weather predictions? Surely the summer 2018 and September 2023 articles I featured within several months before should be up there too and of more relevance?
However, there have not been any such articles against me for a good several years now, and with good reason. I am much better versed in how to deal with these media bullies and Met Office lovers, and even though I never did at the time, various and good people have since contacted me, telling me about the watertight evidence on how devious the articles actually were towards me and how to, in the future, lodge an official complaint with the press commission and take further action (something also relayed to the authors). Again, these articles had absolutely nothing on me, except for some incorrect long-range forecasts that had gained quite a bit of media coverage. Literally nothing criminal or any making up of fake forecasters on my part; I simply got it wrong, or at least very wrong, on a good number of occasions, and as I have explained earlier, I should never have been included within any of those articles. It really makes no sense and smells super fishy to me from how big tech is ranking my historically correct stuff and the articles that have lashed out at me over the years, and it is pretty transparent for all to see and research themselves.
I also came to the decision a while back that trolls are best ignored as they are literally a distraction to me, and if they had anything fair about them, then they would highlight and congratulate my successes instead of just highlighting and ridiculing my failings. Some of the things they have said to me over the years are absolutely vile and beyond my comprehension, so yes, they get a paragraph here, but they are really best ignored.
However, there are aspects of being online and the media that have been very kind to me in terms of the use of my scientific weather work and my long-range weather forecasts repeatedly over the years, and a special thanks particularly to the Daily Mirror, Daily Express, and Nathan Rao for the inclusion of myself within the following scientific and climate articles regarding future solar activity levels and ocean behaviour/Gulf Stream:
https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/mini-ice-age-way-what-7242051.amp
https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/world-brink-new-ice-age-6646041.amp

https://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-news/britain-ice-age-sun-fades-17368026
The following scientific weather article features Professor Stefan Rahmstorf, who currently occupies Einstein's old chair and office, and to date, he is the only major scientist that actually goes on record and agrees with my thinking on gulf stream changes. The fact I'm even mentioned in the same article as him agreeing on the same thing, and that I can even mention my favourite scientist (Einstein) within this final part of my story, is a truly remarkable and surreal feat for me and really does prove how far I have come over the years with my passion and joy for climate and weather predictions.

To conclude, obviously there is an element of guesswork in a forecast, which is why it's actually called a forecast, but if my previous work and correct predictions are based on how guessing works alone, then I've had some pretty damn good guesses and should maybe start thinking about giving up on the weather game and playing the lottery for multiple jackpots in the same week, as that is literally what it is equivalent to in terms of overall odds of getting multiple and major weather events correct this way.
My subsequent and major long-range forecasting accolades since 2009/2010 for most and if not all of the biggest weather events of the last 14 years for cold and heat + dated proof and media links/images of all events are provided above:
• Winter 2009/10 (coldest in over 30 years)
• Winter 2010 (coldest December in 100 years)
• Summer 2011 (coldest in at least two decades)
• Summer 2012 (wettest in 100 years)
• March 2013 (coldest since the 19th century, but the Met Office kept this quiet and the coldest in 130 years in places; see below links)
• Royal wedding 2018 correct forecast
• Summer 2018 (the hottest summer ever)
• June 2023 (record-breaking early summer heatwave and temperatures for June)
• September 2023 (the hottest September on record)
• Autumn 2023 (the stormy and mild October, the exact storm dates for early November, the late November and early December cold and snow, and the mild and unsettled weather thereafter)
• The exact timing of two sudden stratospheric warming (SSW) events in early 2024 from several months ahead of their occurrence in late 2023
The current solar cycle is allowing others to promote and tax global warming at present, but future solar cycles will change this and our weather intrinsically, particularly from in and around 2026–28 onwards. They also changed the term 'global warming' to 'climate change' during the end of the last solar cycle in the previous decade, and I expect that they will follow the same routine during future and much reduced solar cycles and Earth-directed CME's that normally buffet our atmosphere and heat important ocean circulation patterns.
Personally, I am a man with a big passion for the weather who is also a full-time and single parent to a beautiful and young daughter, and I am also quite a big Liverpool FC fan (see below Liverpool FC link). Nothing more or nothing less.
