I'm with you.

 

All of the forecasters are all over the place right now, in terms of when, how much, and what type of precipitation we might see.  Lets hope we get lucky. 

 

Remember,  Weather Forecasting is the only job on the planet where you never have to be right, and you get paid anyway.  

 

Heres a little insight on weather forecasting. It is very rare that a meteorologist is incorrect on their forecast of precipitation. For those interested to know, an example of how forecasting the percentage of precipitation works. As of now I am seeing 40% chance of rain at 8pm this evening during the game. That percentage doesn’t mean there is a 40% chance that it will rain. It actually means that in the area, in this case Akron, there is a 100% chance that 40% of the Akron area will see some form of precipitation. So basically the percentage that is given is the area that will see the precipitation not the percentage that it will rain.

Cheering for two wins over KSU teams this week.  Yours tonight over Kent State.  And ours on Saturday over Kansas State.  We really like the fact that you guys have turned it on and are competing for the MAC championship. 

 

P.S.  See my post in the Iowa State thread about our chances to be in the Big 12 championship.

You know God only invented weather forecasters so economist wouldn't feel so bad.
