Iowa Aviation Weather...en Espanol
Seriously, I find it appalling that our supposedly cash-strapped
National Weather Service is wasting untold oodles of taxpayer money on
bilingual weather forecasting.
I doubt it's much. How many phrases do you think are involved? Google
could probably do it.
And they did save some money on one phrase. I think Wednesday evening
was supposed to be "cold". That's the new Spanish word for "Frio".
As if ANYONE can't figure
out what the weather forecast is simply by looking at the pictograms?
=That= is the real problem. All those pictograms instead of real
weather information. Pretty soon we'll be looking at a forecast that
consists of happy faces and sad faces, and dire warnings to stay inside
because it's dark at night.
