🧑‍🤝‍🧑 / 🏡 ⛈ The weather thread. The south braces for the weekend cold (Moved here for a few days since some of y'all will feel this.)

I was just saying take the meteorologist of it.

Chromecast, running through T-Mobile's Internet, gives me a feed out of Charlotte. The (their) temp is on the home screen. I just add a few degrees and walk outside. I could change it. I don't care.

Same. Just never understood the need for a person to tell me what the weather is, while being wrong regularly. Just give me the numbers.

You may want more detail than I do. I'll admit, Wednesday I looked at the numbers for this morning. I have to be downtown for a "filter change" before the sun comes up. I wanted to know the temp to judge what it's going to feel like down there.

I mention "doing the math" with the temp and Chromecast. Damn, as much as I hate it, here's more math. It's 50 at the airport. I'm about 10 miles from there, more inland, so it's three to four degrees cooler here. I'm guessing 47 or so. But, I'm going downtown. So, I have to that that 47 and add as much as 10 degrees. It's probably 55-58 down there right now. It's one of those "perks" of living on the coast.

In summer ... if it's mid 90's here, it's mid 80's down there.

All that fluxuation within a half of hour...

If they are writing about it on campus it seems okay to move it here for a few days. (Objections will be noted.) Ignored, but noted.
