I expect snow in January and February even as far down South as I'm now living. I just didn't expect the forecasting to be so poor. I'll hear on the local news "It's going to snow 3" starting at noon tomorrow! Take cover!" and then nothing happens. This occurred a lot in December. The weather folks would predict snow and we'd get rain or nothing at all.
Tuesday and yesterday, snow wasn't forecast for my area and we had two and a half inches of snow which surprised everyone around.
Now, they are saying we might have a major snow event next week. If they can't figure it out our weather day-by-day, why should I believe that? Or should I? Is everyone going to run to the supermarket? Should I stock my freezer?
Aside from that, it's been about 20-30 degrees below normal for the past few weeks.
Is it spring yet?

Hi! I found you through VA Bloggers. I have always lived in VA, so poor forecasting is not new to me, but you never get used to it. Was that not the case where you moved from?
ReplyDeleteHey Susan! No, our forecasts on Long Island were pretty accurate because we didn't have the mountain factor that VA has. Since we were at ocean level, the forecasts were mostly spot on. I never know what to expect here. :-)
