I have taught my children well...

That's the Cliff Mass weather blog.  Maybe I've written about it before.  He's a local forecaster and climate professor.  And, and, he knows when it's going to snow.  Which it is this week.

I was talking with Naomi on the phone.  I'm worrying because I have to go 31 miles to a dr appt.  Don't ask, do not get me started.

"What if it snows?"  I worry.  "Mom, mom" she says, "Cliff says it's not going to snow until Thursday."

I'm glad to hear that.  Cliff has been on and off local stations usually getting thrown off because he doesn't stick to weather issues.  "I don't care about any of that!" exclaims Naomi, "Just tell me when it's going to snow!"

Get to the stuff that matters!  Cliff is rarely wrong, he knows when it's going to snow, it's the law.  Sometimes he gets it wrong.  "Cliff, what's going on?" complains a reader, "I'm down in Tacoma and there's hardly any snow!  Ramp it up!"  See, he controls the snow.

He's always trying to educate us.  He posts some complete unintelligible chart with all kinds of arrows and squiggles, "As you can clearly see..."

See, I've taught her local sources, authority figures and the questions that matter.

"Just tell me when it's going to snow!!!"
