Etymology

The word 'forecastable' is a combination of the words 'forecast' and 'able'. The term 'forecast' originated from Middle English 'fore-casten', meaning 'to calculate beforehand'. It first appeared in the late 14th century. The suffix '-able' is derived from Old French '-able', indicating capability or ability. Therefore, 'forecastable' emerged to describe something that can be predicted or anticipated, especially in the context of weather forecasting.
