rtr Posted March 12, 2004 Share Posted March 12, 2004 So I'm trying to prepare for my match on Sunday, weather.com says it'll be 55, one local station says it will be 35 breezy and could snow, another local station says it will be 54, yet another station says 49 breezy with snow. So basically I don't know what the hell is going to happen. With all the money and people the TV stations throw at the weather you'd think they'd be better. If these idiots can do a 5 day forecast how come I have to watch them for 10 minutes every night instead of 10 minutes every 5 days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skywalker Posted March 12, 2004 Share Posted March 12, 2004 The only reliable way to have accurate weather forecasts is to have arthritis or rheumatics... ...but they are reliable only up to 36 hours ahead! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dajarrel Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 Indian weather forcasting. Walk outside and look up. If face gets wet, its raining, if it gets warm the sun is shining. If you slip and bust your a$$, you should have been looking down to see the ice dj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duane Thomas Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 My main bitch about weather forecasters: I ask you, what sort of lame-o forecast is "Partly cloudy, chance of rain"? If it's a crappy day, almost totally overcast but there's one patch of bare sky anywhere, they're right. If it's a bright, beautiful day with one cottonball cloud, they're right. If it's raining, they're right. If it's not raining, they're right. And for this, people get paid money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skywalker Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 Well, talking about weather forecasts, one of the funniest things I ever saw was a nice gadget to make your own weather forecasts. It was placed right outside of a small mountain refuge on the western Italian Alps: it was made up of a hanging rope tied on top to a metal bar, and had a sign below it saying: Weather Forecasts for today - If rope is wet: drizzle or rain. - If rope is slant: heavy wind. - If rope is frozen: temperature below zero. - If rope is invisible: heavy fog.
