Meteorologists = FAIL

Meteorologists don’t know nothin’. I sorta guessed that, but it’s nice to have it validated. Remember Opera in the Domain? Every weatherperson in Sydney said it was going to pour rain, to the extent that a bunch of people piked. And it turned out to be a gloriously sunny afternoon! (Link courtesy of PCJM.)

  1. One of my friends (he is a meteorologist) used to say, “A forecast is just a prediction, now give me a quarter.” He always made sure that people knew that his job is to make an educated guess as to what the weather might do.

    I wish my job was a bunch of guesswork!
