Seems to me local weather forecasts have been "off" as of late, particularly since the federal shutdown. Reports have seemed more and more inaccurate, changing drastically, day to day, even hour to hour. Indeed, it has so seemed ever since this year's dreadful cuts to the government's scientific agencies charged with studying weather and climate.
For example, we were supposed to get hammered this holiday weekend. For crying out loud, people drove home early from the family's Thanksgiving gathering just to beat the impending storm.
Instead of a blizzard, we got a nice, normal blast of cold with an inch or so of snow--completely seasonal for this lat in November. Nothing nobody couldn't handle. And it is already melting away.
Seriously, check the forecast, then check the actual weather, then check the forecast again and see just how close it keeps.
Perhaps we'd have just as much luck checking the Old Farmer's Almanac.
Of course, it's set to close down as well.
Where and when will the weather have us then?
