Because they are run for short periods of time only, they tend to have much higher resolution and more detailed physics than climate models (but note that the Hadley Centre for instance, uses the same model for climate and weather purposes).

Due to the sensitivity on initial values also within limits of reasonable agreement with real weather patterns at a specific moment of time, the interesting results come from averages over many model runs or over long enough periods to remove the dependence on initial values.

Recent work (e.g., Hurrell 1995, 1996; Thompson and Wallace 1998; Corti et al., 1999) has suggested that the observed warming over the last few decades may be manifest as a change in frequency of these naturally preferred patterns (Chapters 2 and 7) and there is now considerable interest in testing the ability of climate models to simulate such weather regimes (Chapter 8) and to see whether the greenhouse gas forced runs suggest shifts in the residence time or transitions between such regimes on long time - scales.

So when the claim is made that failure of model runs to reproduce the pause is some sort of failing, the only failure on display is that of the claimant to understand the nature of climate versus weather.

The most striking thing to me about these seemingly divergent runs is that (in the absence of a code error) it blows a very large hole in the ideas used to justify using weather models for climate.

And one last point: climate model runs are not * expected * to reproduce the exact details of weather over time, because each features its own internal «weather».
