Self Portrait-Weather Prognostigator
After the Panic Subsides

Yesterday I mocked the entire part of the nation that was in an hysterical panic over a snow forecast. People stormed the supermarkets to stock up on bread , milk, and apples. (Why apples, not bananas or mangoes?)

As I predicted, instead of two feet of snow, or one foot, or ten inches, we got…four. After which the precipitation turned to freezing rain, or sleet, whatever you call falling ice particles.

BTW, did you know ice can bounce? Sleet does. Never knew that.

Anyways, anyone with an SUV can get to the store, or buy gas, or get to their tango lessons. Not advisable, as the sleet continues. But eminently possible.

You might think that 24/7 access to weather news would lower the angst over predicted storms. What it does, instead, is spin up the weather based hysteria into a rabies-like frothing at the mouth. It also appears to lower our collective IQs and senses of perspective to ten year old child levels.

So here I am, right again. This makes twice; I predicted in 2016 that either Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton, or possibly a third party candidate, would win the election. Its tough to be right so much, but I endure.
