According to the weatherman it's meant to be warm today. Not boiling hot like it was for a while but more like yesterday when we had the paddling pool out for baby Kaitlyn who amused herself by throwing in golf balls and saying "splash". Instead it was cold enough for me to wake up shivering and wear my new jacket out today. It's a bit chilly. Wish they'd have it right for once!

I don't pay too much attention to the weatherman anymore,
It seems they give the five day forecast and within two days thats changed anyway.

But it's their job to be wrong, isn't it?

I live in Nova Scotia and the weather man is NEVER right!
I am stuck with a whole lot of soaked laundry and nothing to do with it
again because of their stupid forecast.
You ain't alone hunny!

Look at that brat go!

How can they be right all the time, it is only a guess, nothing is perfect in the sense that they get everything right

But they're always wrong! It's not even sometimes, it's never. "Today will be a very mild winter day with clear skies" and I was like "Take a look outside! It's a snowstorm!!" Granted, I don't look at the weather often, I just judge the day based on what happens when I open the window and stick my hand out, but everytime I do they're wrong about it!

Anything can happen any second though to change that prediction, assuming that they say that Falkirk is a big place, it may mean a different part of Falkirk

It happens also in London

Nope. The SKy website gave me Carron, Falkirk for my postcode and said the same as the T.V.

Believe me, it happens at my part of London, and I sometimes wonder what the heck they are talking about

Yeah but all the time?

I mean that time we had snow they had the whole area around ABerdeen (where I was at the time) as being clear but some people didn't make it to uni for a couple of days. (Two of them had never missed class before so

)

It was till me and two friends got bored with the snow and spent the whole day playing shot-glass snakes and ladders. I don't remember much after we ran out of Mickey Finns and switched to raspberry vodka
