Is -34F “warmer than average” for New Mexico?

What the hell kind of forecast is “equal chances for above-, near-, or below-normal temperatures and precipitation.”
They moved New Mexico to the PNW, squeezed it in right between Wa and Or.
BTW, look at the forecast for Alaska, they missed it too…..
The same thing as on the equinox, equal chance of sun and no sun 🙂 depending on where you live of course…. give or take a few minutes …
It’s straight from the Met Office Forecast they denied giving to the UK Government last November.
No one is perfect. But this forecast was pretty close to perfect inperfection.
How could it be a failure? They said “above, at, or below” didn’t they that seems to cover about everything. I’m making the same prediction for this summer. Were? Oh, anywhere. I’m certain it’ll be one of those now matter wher you pick.
Did you know where the study of “chaos theory” had it’s birth? Chaos theory came out of the attempts to predict weather.
And co2 is the butterfly flapping it’s wings!
interesting factoid – lol
Total fail? This is global warming we’re talking about here. Total fail means total success.
