Climatologists come into play when planning infrastructure, urban planning (expansion and renewal), disaster prediction (such as flooding) and planning for water resources. As far as the weather--that happens independent of what the meteorologists predicted.

Nobody can control the wind Nobody can control the rain or snow Nobody (collectively) can control climate.
