Accuracy is what our local meteorologist brag about ...



Today, we were told that we had only about a 30% chance of being rained on…GUESS WHAT???? I suppose they could have meant if we stayed indoors?
But in actuality that chance of rain outside, which I seriously believe is what they had to have meant…has been more than that all day; thrice that percentage wise! Yes, I would say at least ninety percent, since we had a small break through of sun a few times, perhaps that was the 30% they were referring to, the dry part, and got it backwards?
And it is still doing it; raining that is.
What I want to know is how any of these stations can lay claim that their meteorologists are the most accurate and that they are certified, more accurate than what; tossing a coin, certified by a certifiable insanity clause stating if it rains they are NOT to be held responsible?
Do they know that rain is when the skies open up after dark clouds appear and then wetness falls/arrives on the surrounding area below them?
I think they should go back to weather school.
The instruments that are supposed to be helping them be so very ‘accurate’ are being read WRONG!

My eye pain has made me need to use my heavy duty medication provided for that and so I will be cutting this short tonight… please forgive I will try to be more upbeat tomorrow…
