Hahaha, good idea. Wonder if we should ask a mod to move the last two pages of the photo thread over here since we usurped it?

Weather for July 2 - 3... Unpredicatable Some where between Rainy and Hot with temps in the Low 70's to the low 100's. 5% of Snow and 5% - 100% chance of hail are possible. Keep the Sunscreen on and the umbrella handy.

Weather for June 26 - 27 HOT with a little more heat, low humidy and LOTS of dust

Just call me Kathy Saben, or Becky Ditchfield. I'd LOVE to make the money they make by guessing the weather, pointing at a screen, wearing nice outfits, have my own hair and make-up artists and everything else that goes with being a Weather Model :P

I can think of no other field where one can make good money being wrong more than 50% of the time.

Perhaps politics...but in that case they are wrong ALL of the time!

A 13 point spread for the temperature and 40 point spread for the probability of precip is not a forecast; it's a wild a** guess!

It seems to that I recall the Hippie Dippy Weatherman, George Carlin, say "tomorrow will be dark, with intermittent periods of light" or something equally non-committal...

Weather.com says 77, and stormy.  Looking out the window right now, that is a fair estimate. I figure it'll probably be around 84 at the hottest, and cloudy-ish towards the evening. It'll be a nice weekend. Wish I could be there to enjoy it!
