I often ask: ”Do weather forecasters feel guilty accepting their pay?”
Most people would say: “They certainly should”.
After clearing the streets of NYC for “an unprecedented blizzard of epic proportions”, weather forecasters had to eat crow when the snow-that-would-end-the world turned out to be, well, a garden-variety winter snow storm.
At least one weather-dude had the decency to apologize.
According to CNBC:
“Gary Szatkowski, the meteorologist in charge of the National Weather Service’s office in New Jersey, stunned people in the wee hours Tuesday with a heartfelt apology for the blown forecast.”
How did the forecasters get things so wrong?
