If someone wants me to change my actions because of a future forecast they’ve made and don’t share evidence they used to make their judgements, I don’t take them very seriously.
It seems though, that for a lot of ‘forecasters’ they don’t have specific within-the-next-week actions they’re trying to get people to do, they mainly just feel like forecasting is a very interesting and good thing to do. It’s a high status hobby.
