The Storm They Have Been ForeCasting For Days Here For Tonight Has Been Downgraded From Severe Risk To Light Risk…

I just love the way the meteorologists get Oklahomans worked up nearly a week beforehand with their “the sky is falling” type of reports. I had to tell the boy 3 days in a row not to keep trying to alarm me with the weather forecasts and that I was keeping an eye on it. He hasn’t figured out that they love to hype it up.

And maybe this year my peonies will not have their blooms blown off by strong winds. They have just started blooming now.

Ya gotta love the Weather Man. It's amazing how often they get it wrong, but still manage to keep their jobs and get paid big bucks too. I agree with you. They hype it up so much that we almost don't believe them when they are actually telling the truth for a change.

@Musicman They are considered hero’s when strong tornadoes hit and they do continuous coverage before, during and after the event. In a way they are but that just makes them do this type of thing more.

@cherokeepatti I know. They always get right in the middle of the nasty storms. The pictures are great, but they should really stay in a safe place.
