Forecast Me Some Weather
Wink: Honk if you love peace and quiet.
Monday, Dec.4th, brought the first snow flakes of any significance for this beginning winter season in our region. Other areas have had lots of the white stuff dumped upon them in short periods of time.
We have had lots of promises that it is coming, no its not, yes it is, no perhaps not. Modern technology has benefited nearly all walks of life, but I don't see it happening in the weather reporting business.
In fact if you dissect the forecasts on a regular basis you will find it usually contains a description that goes: Clearing with possible showers or flurries, cloudy with sunny periods, overcast by mid day becoming sunny with some overcast. Forecasts that cover every possible thing that could happen so they will be right, with their prediction no matter what we get.
So once again I wonder if it is going to be as good a day yesterday as it was tomorrow. Looks like it is going to clear up and be cloudy with shattered scours, dark tonight, daylight tomorrow, with a little wind from your favourite forecaster.
