Howdy,

Well, as I like to say, God has a reason for everything. And since my degree in meteorology isn't gettin me a weather forecasting job that pays, I use that knowledge to do my own forecasting. A little study on some webpages and I put together my own weather map (ala microsoft paint) and then use the computer models found on a few sites to look at the future stuff. Following the current situation and looking for repetitive patterns in the models is key. Can't buy the model forecast word for word or you just get a constant change and no reliable forecast (can you say t.v. weather forecast?). I'm no big fan of tv guys since most are there to look good and "accuracy" is just a $2 word thrown around to get more viewers. God bless.

p.s. remember the old saying, "Don't shoot the messenger" well, unless he's more concerned about his hair than about giving the weather. :)
