First World Problems...

The idea that weather can be accurately predicted is amusing, since all of us have been bitten in the ass by the pretend-scientific forecasts of...pretty much every weather service. And let's not start on predicting climate!

But they can't even get it correct for the next 24 hours!

I grilled yesterday evening. And the weather reports enthusiastically parroted the 4% chance of rain nonsense.

They were wrong, and my uncovered grill got a soaking. It's not a crisis, or maybe it is, because I want to grill tonight, and I will have to heat the grill another 30 seconds to drive off the moisture left by the rain. And because the grill was uncovered it has some detritus from the garden on it, and that means a wipe-down!

THIS SHALL NOT STAND!
