Weather Rant

One thing that drives me crazy (and I'm getting closer to the edge all the time), is weathermen/weatherwomen telling me what the "high" is going to be for tomorrow. Take for example tomorrow (Friday). You'll hear various newscasts tell you that the "high" will be 52 degrees. BUT, that "high" will come at 6:00 a.m. with the temperature dropping towards the the 30s for the rest of the day. Translation: We're gonna freeze our booties off. Telling me the "high" is going to be 52 doesn't tell me a thing. One exception to this rule is Channel 8's Troy Dungan (at least for today). But, I still will never forgive him for being absolutely clueless as I watched him on live TV as the tornado hit downtown Fort Worth a few years ago. He was fixated on a storm headed towards Grapevine and had no idea what was going on.
