8 hours ago weather.com stated there is a 100% "chance" of rain in the 60611 zip code this evening at 7:00pm.
Looking like they are/were/will be 100% wrong.
I am reminded that on Friday at 2:00pm they said there was a 15% chance of rain at 7:00pm - and it fricking poured and poured and poured.
My question is, how and why do these people have their job/s?

Are you under the impression that a human is coming up with that percentage? Or are you saying the software should be fired?

Definition of assholes!

i’d say dumb, but not necessarily assholes

The main reason I called them assholes is because there have been numerous times dumb people cost smart people their life/lives.
Meaning in this case, if that woman got carried away by the wave - a good samaritan might jump in the water to try and save her - and die because of it. It happens. Too often.

[CrimsonNBlue]

Maybe you're an asshole if you try to save a dumb person.

gutter-5

[Deleted User 89]

or dumb for trying to save an asshole?

[TDub]

or dumb for living in Chicago which, apparently, is full of assholes.

[Deleted User 887]

More dumb. Or asshole. Or both. Or neither.

[jfish26]

Yeah, it would be insane to invest in the American Southwest right now. Except maybe in solar.

We found out that Mrs 99 has a fear of heights and and no sense of humor above 10,000 feet on that road.

Tornado warning about 30 miles or so South of us.

First snow in the valley this season! Couple inches on the truck. Still some golden leaves on aspens and the bright on white is real cool

[jhawks99]

I was up for a beautiful sunrise this this morning, so clear. Lots of high, wispy clouds in orange and purple. I start work and look out the window 10 minutes later and then it was super phoggy.

Weird.

Woke up to 46 degrees at Lake Las Vegas this morning.
Complete bullshit and not helpful to boating.
