I found a printout of this on my keyboard this morning. I think my family
is trying to tell me something. How ungrateful!!! I spit out a weather
forecast for them each morning like a dang meteorologist and this is what
I get. I was wondering, am I the only one guilty of some of these actions?

lol, quite a few of those are true.

* You’ve ever tried to derive, using mathematical equations, exactly what would happen if a certain cat-5 hurricane slammed into New York.
Well not quite but I've been know to look at charts and then use equations to work windspeeds out.

* When a severe thunderstorm hits, while everyone else is trying to rush indoors, you rush outdoors.
Maybe......

* You’ve ever sent a letter to a major weather site informing them of an error in their site.
Might have done this one a couple of times. :lol:

* You can write a complicated weather forecast program in FORTRAN that will parse the input values of the ETA, NGM, and AVN models, but you can't write a program that will print out "Hello, World!".
Well I can do the Hello World program. :lol:

* You went to see Twister for the tornadoes.
What makes anyone on here think I'm interested in tornadoes.....

* You set your watch to Zulu time.
Well yes half the year it is set to GMT. :lol:
