Weather..always a scary topic

[Sparky-(Admin) 25,602]

  Seeing rain in the forecast for Thursday/Friday/Saturday but right now it appears it’s at night or evening. That’s all good for me as I’ll be sleeping in my hotel room.
  I’m sure there are better weather apps than the cheesy one that came installed on my phone. What are you all seeing?

My WeatherBug forecast says 30% chance. That means 70% chance of no rain.

Weather Chanel looks much better.

The weather forecast will change 20 times before Thurs. Not really any point of even checking. The only thing I'm watching is where are the remnants of that tropical storm headed.

Learned this last year - If you start to see dark clouds over the mountain, you have about 20min to find a dry place to hang out.

Meteorologist - Best job in the world... good pay, 50% chance you'll be right, 50% of the time, maybe 25% of the time...

I was in the A Z barn and saw the storm clouds coming. I got back just in time to take control of the ship!

This is probably a description of what will not happen

And we know where those Friday T storms will be "isolated!" Don't we!

Oh well not much we can do about it but bring rain gear.

100% Chance they will get paid no matter how much they are wrong!

I suppose most are actually trained and went to school for metrology but should we assume mostly there isn't much human scientific weather analysis actually done....but likely most forecasting is done by computers?

Well my weather app is saying only possibility of rain on Thursday, the other days are partly sunny and highs in the low 80's keeping my fingers 🤞 that this one holds...every year seems to be hot, rainy or both...
