You can explicitly reject the analogy.

That doesn't make you correct.

Crime is a public health issue. It shares common causes with ill health, particularly poverty, and fear of violent crime is itself a major cause of anxiety. Community development in pre-school education, parental education, and among ethnic minorities, both reduces crime and promotes better health, for example in reducing the effects of alcohol and illicit drugs. Health workers should contribute in full to community development.

I note that I'm standing with my earlier characterisation of a public health domain rather than weather, but both carry very strong similarities, including a risk / forecast / mitigations approach.
