Northwest’s preeminent meteorologist agrees with me…June sucks.

Cliff Mass is on my side!!

Per my post last week (2 down below “[waaah, waaah] This rain is abnormal [Waaaah, waaah]”) One of the Northwest’s preeminent meteorologists, The UW’s Cliff Mass, agrees with my rant! OK, he doesn’t explicitly point me out or anything, but here is an expert on weather totally backing me up on what I’ve been saying forever. Outstanding.

Here’s his post:

The First Day of Summer: When Will It Be?

In fact, he’s more conservative than me in his findings — he says July 12 instead of my July 5th.

I love it when this happens — now I have an actual article by an expert to refer to when people complain (Which happens nearly every day! I swear….)

BTW, I *love* Cliff’s blog. I’m a total weather junkie.

[waaah, waaah] This rain is abnormal [Waaaah, waaah]

STOP it. You are wrong. It is always like this.

The Seattle area gets a nice little sunny streak in early May, which make all the ex-pats go bananas that summer is here. Then it shuts down again with the last part of May and most of June being pretty cool with spats of rain all the time.

“Oh, this is so abnormal”

“Oh, this isn’t like other years”

Bull$hit. It is ALWAYS like this in Seattle spring. I’m tired of hearing about it — I thought I had posted about this previously on my blog to proove my point, but I’m making record now.

I need to remind everyone that summer around here does not start until exactly July 5th.

Oh, and more rain is in the forecast!! Hahahahahahahaha.

KOMO: 747? 787? They’re the same, right?

This just cries out to be ridiculed and made fun of as wide as possible.  Seriously, this is a professional news organization in an area where aerospace is one of the top 2 industries.

Seriously, KOMO, you deserve all the raspberry you can get for this.  It’s just sloppy and lazy.  No excuses — you are NOT the average person who may not see the difference — you are in the business of ACCURACY and by god in the Seattle area you need to know your airplanes. Would a TV station in Detroit make a story with a caption about a Mustang yet have the picture be a F150 truck?  Must I even explain this to you?!

Next you’ll show a screen shot of Apple Macintosh OS X in relation to a Microsoft Windows 7 story.  Seriously, guys, this is that bad…and if you can’t see that — wow, I’m astonished and kind of embarrassed you are in my town.  You guys are being THAT stupid.  And you haven’t even corrected it after hours of people leaving comments on your own website!

Shame on you.

Here’s the link to the story, which hopefully they will correct.  But I took a screen shot to proove KOMO’s stupidity:
