   It's not snowing! Minimize

Let's see, yesterday there was an 80 percent chance of snow today and the forecast was for 3 to 5 inches. Then it was for 1 to 3 inches. Then it was for at least an inch. Now Skippy (Dan Zarrow) has the audacity to say it was TOO WARM to snow. Hey Skippy, it didn't even RAIN!!! (By the way, I was once told that exclamation points are substitutes for poor vocabulary, so there you have it) Can anyone count the number of times we've had snow forecast that didn't happen? Why don't they just go on the air and say "We have absolutely no idea." Just forecast the wind. They're usually pretty good at that. Say "It'll be windy tomorrow and it will be out of the north." or "out of the south." For some reason they can predict the wind, but not the rain. Speaking of wind, how about that stop light mast blowing down at 67th and Cache Road? What if there had been a car there at the fateful moment? Who would be sued? The city? the light signal mast makers? God? I have a hard time believing that those masts ought to blow over, even in the 50 mph winds we were having.

The light thing is very scary. I quess we should not drive on the streets if they forecast wind. That would make traffic in Lawton much better. Since we have daily winds.

That Skippy sure is a tricky fella. Perhaps we need to suggest to Mama Jan that her weather forecasters place their Meteorologist Degree Paperwork up on their green wall. As we check the weather, we can check their certification right on our TV screen. Wonder which school Skippy went to to get his Windy Certification? Must have been somewhere in the south, as he certainly doesn't have the cold experience for the snow yet.

Hello, out there!  I'm Bonnie Barker.  You are all probably acquainted with my nephew, Sheridan, otherwise known as the "smartest prairie dog in town".  

Being somewhat envious of Sheridan's success, I decided that I should host a blog of my own.  I am interested in all the news that's fit to print and some that isn't. If you don't have anything nice to say, please come down to the prairie dog mounds and let's dish!
