Snow?!

It's been a rough winter for weather forecasters. As late as Wednesday, they were saying that the temperature today was supposed to 40 degrees under partly cloudy skies. However, a small snowstorm moved through for about 2 1/2 hours this afternoon, <rant>causing our basketball Senior Night to be canceled because the other team didn't want to risk coming in from KC.</rant> Needless to say, I am displeased. It's not fair to the seniors, who have worked for four years and now won't get any recognition. Such is life, but it's disappointing that the forecasters can't do a better job.
So far this winter, every forecast of a major snowstorm even one day in advance has been a bust. Now, we have only a same-day warning about this mini-storm, and it's enough to scare our opposition out of driving in to play us. Sigh.

I hear you. I'm confined to the house and NOT happy about it!
