Things have been really stupid around here weather-wise, lately. A little while back when we had those 2 ice events and there were all those accidents apparently a lot of folks were peeved that schools and so forth were not delayed longer or closed altogether and then we ended up with those temps in the 60's and 70's.
Well, yesterday morning I'm on my way into the office I was tryin' to figure out why there was no action whatsoever at the 2 schools I drive by on my way to the office. Was it some teacher work day or some holiday I didn't know about? It was 26 degrees and overcast, but there wasn't a drop of moisture on the ground and I got to the office in record time. When I got to the office one of my coworkers told me his kids schools had been delayed 2 hours 'cause there was supposed to be another ice event. Yesterday they started predicting yet another one for overnight last night and this time it was gonna' be the real thing so all the local school districts, etc., cancelled for today. It was 28 when I woke up this mornin' and went to look out the back door. Dry as a bone. When I turned on the news they said we weren't outta' the woods yet and that it
could start to get bad around 9a 'cause the moisture was just runnin' a little late. Left for the office around 7:30 and, again, made it in a flash. And, guess what. When I left the office around 2-ish it was 35 or so degrees and not a drop of any moisture in sight.
34 here right now and supposed to be 30 overnight. High of 67 tomorrow and then 75 on Sunday.
I know I really shouldn't be complainin', but it seems like with today's tech, meteorologists should be able to get a little bit closer to predicting the weather more accurately than back in the stone age.
