Hey, Mom! Talking to My Mother #1027 - Meteorologist

Hi Mom,

Past due time for a random xkcd comic. Actually, I did not press the random button for this one. Instead I went to the current comic and then back one day and when I saw it was about the weather, I was sold on it as my choice.

The weather is frustrating me. Actually, the weather itself has been fine. I should say the forecasting has been frustrating me, specifically the KOIN-6 local CBS affiliate's radar's future cast, which showed me this morning that I had an optimum DRY window for a walk with my dogs from 10:30-12:30, and it RAINED ON ME. Granted not a lot of rain, but when I arrived home and looked at the radar, the weather HAD NOT moved in the pattern predicted in the model. I rely on these models to help me keep the dogs dry. I don't mind so much about walking in the rain -- though I would have worn different shoes had I known I would be rained on -- but wet dogs are... well, WET. And that's an easy thing for any of us: me, them, passers-by getting soaked by their droplet shaking sprays.

Anyway, this comic amused me.

And it's raining now, but then, that's what the radar predicted.

That's all folks (and Mom). I needed a quickie as I am allegedly grading like a fiend. Or at least that's what I am putting here in case any of my students look!! Ha! Kidding.

I am grading, but I also had to do normal life things: dog walking, grocery shopping, taking the dogs to be groomed...

There may be a dog grooming report tomorrow! :-)

Reflect and connect.

Have someone give you a kiss, and tell you that I love you, Mom.

I miss you so very much, Mom.

Talk to you tomorrow, Mom.

NEW (written 1708.27) NOTE on time: I am now in the same time zone as Google! So, when I post at 10:10 a.m. PDT to coincide with the time of your death, Mom, I am now actually posting late, so it's really 1:10 p.m. EDT. But I will continue to use the time stamp of 10:10 a.m. to remember the time of your death, Mom. I know this only matters to me, and to you, Mom.
