Why do people post so mucxh in that weather thread?
« on: January 26, 2011, 03:57:49 PM »
I see it pop up all the time, but to me it just seems boring as hell so I never read it and haven;t contributed to it much

Just wondering why people like posting that

I know that forum is for spammy stuff, but in the other threads there mostly seems to be a chance of actually talking about stuff, whereas just posting the temperature or weather that day seems boring as hell to me

I fidn the weather boring in general though. it always does my hed in how they have weather forecasts on the news

I dont pay much attention to it. I usually only post in it if the weather is a bit extreme. I think I posted in it during the snowy spell.

Do you agree that weather forecasts are ghey?

They do the local weather on the local news, then do the national weather two mins later on the natioonal news

???

wtf

Why do we need local weather if we've seen the whole country's weather? and why are we interested in the whole country's weather if we already know our own?

Obviously if people are travelling then sure, but shouldn't those people just look that up themselves on the internet or something?


So retarded. They go on and on and ON as well, I swear they just make them talk that much so they can justify employing a whole extra person and paying them a salary

So retarded

Weather forecasts are not a waste of time to me. I would watch all of them during the cold spell to see when the cold would end. I would pay huge attention to local forecasts in areas where I had flats lying empty to see what yhe risk of burst pipes was. I was even reading the 5 day forecast on ceefax a few times each day.

Even now I look at the forecast if Im going far away so that I can decide whether to take the car or thr bike. I wouldnt want to be caught in rain, miles from home on my bike.

I post in it sometimes because it is available. It also serves as an excuse to repost my favorite Johnny Nash song from time to time.

And now, time for another video.

Weather is what you talk about when you don't know what to talk about.  :snowing:

I even look at the weather data from off shore weather buoys.  Weather fascinates me like fat chicks for you :P
