Weather humour
So, my local radio station told two weather-person jokes yesterday
that I thought I'd pass on to give you all a groan... 1) Q: Where do the weather forecasters go for a drink after work? A: The iso-bar 2) Two meterologists crashed in an airplane and each broke an arm and a leg... their friend called the hospital to find out if they can do four casts. Don't blame me... I'm just passing them on! - John |

For anyone who feels even the slightest compulsion towards weather geekdom (which I figure a measurable percentage of RAS-er's might!), the weather pattern centered nicely over the continental US (http://www.nws.noaa.gov/sat_loop.php?image=ir&hours=24) is not only highly unusual (in my geekly experience which I blame on the repetitious satellite loops from the late [lamented?] "AM Weather" formerly of MD Public TV of the 1980s), but pretty darned - ahem!- *cool* in that: 1) it's stable jet-positionally-speaking, which leads to 2) both stationary (and - the eastern one - expanding over the past few days) jet-induced lows which presently are driving essentially all the local weather over the US and southern Canada. You guys in the NE US been noticing the direction your thunderstorms have been traveling recently? Only once before can I recall a - longer amplitude - stable pattern driving weather systems/bands of T-storms all the way from West Virginia to the Front Range of Colorado. So while much of the continent's soaring weather is presently dismal, we can enjoy it for its relative rarity's sake...probably at least until Saturday! Bob W. |

Speaking of weather humor, one of the participants at the Hilton Cup 2
years ago shared the following expression, said to be current in Germany: "you don't _have_ to be a weatherman to lie." |

That is a bit unfair to weather forecasters -- they may be wrong much of the time, but they aren't telling intentional untruths. |

I recall enjoying watching a rather buxom young blond WEATHER READER on a small market TV station years ago. She said, "the winds tomorrow will be CALM at about 20 to 25 mph. Nice to know that the 20 mph winds will be calm. She didn't have a clue most of the time but she was nice to look at. Yes, I am a male, chauvinist pig.
