Thanks for the question! So we’re being asked here for a flaw in the meteorologist’s counterargument. The issue with (C) is that in the first place, it’s not calling into question the existence of a correlation. It’d be calling into question the existence of a causation. Remember, correlation and causation aren’t the same. The existence of the correlation itself isn’t be called into question.
Hope this helps! Feel free to ask any other questions that you might have.

D is correct because the meteorologist is relying on only expert opinion. They dismiss the claim because according to them every meteorologist would disagree, but they dont actually engage with the merits of the claim.
