Monday, January 23, 2006 New England Weather Sometimes, the weather here sucks ass. I know it's New England and you can never count on it, because there's some freakishly lost Bermuda Triangle action happening at any given moment. But it was damned nice over the weekend. I believe yesterday was 60 or just under. It was like April or early May instead of January. But today winter is back; it snowed last night and this morning and I don't really remember much being said about it (but maybe I'm not paying attention). Anyway, it took me over 2 hours to get to work and the road was a bloody sheet of ice most of the way. Tine and I had this discussion about why they get the weather so grossly wrong around here. We wonder whether or not actual precipitation is difficult to forecast. After all, you wouldn't know it if they said it was going to rain 2" and it only rained 1.5". And snow is much more volumesque, shall we say? If you're off by a little either way, it makes a difference in sometimes dramatic ways. Plus, snow tends to stick around. Rainwater washes down the storm drain, so unless you've got your Junior Science Weatherdork kit out there, you can't really gauge it so well. Snow is usually here to stay. Whatever. In other news, I've posted the teaser for next month's NELUG meeting, here. Yup, we're taking dork to a whole new level with this one. I'll have more details at some point. Why don't you try holding your breath? posted by Evil Wayne | 2:18 PM 1 comments 1 Comments:
