Default Does This Happen Where You Live?

:rant: Why is it, that the weather forecasters can't forecast the weather? I had an iching to drive the GS to work (I normally don't). I watched 3 forecasts this morning before coming to work - no rain today! Well guess what it's doing as I type :rolleyes:

I know, the car will not melt, but I try to avoid this if possible. Plus I really hate driving a dirty Vette :(

Oh well, things could be worse I suppose :)

Yes, same here, I have pretty much given up on weather forecasters, I just look out the window and hope for the best.

Usually in Houston if you don't like the weather wait a minute. But lately the forecast is hot and humid and no rain.

Sucks that your car will get dirty, but don't complain, y'all need any moisture you can get.

Hey, come to the east coast, in the last 40 days or so, it's rained or been cloudy and some rain, for at least 30 of the 40 days. We're almost 6" of rain over normal. :cuss :banghead:

Yeah, really! Whatever happened to the days when there was always some old farmer with an arthritic elbow and a jar of woolly-bear caterpillers that could ALWAYS tell you what the weather was going to do......and usually be right about it too?
