Arizona Weather

August 8, 2010

We have a new weather guy down here. The last one died of boredom. Think about it: reading the same forecast day after day after day. On really challenging weather days, the temperature might jump two whole degrees, or a couple of clouds move in and threaten a little rain. 

This new guy is from northern Iowa. My wife likes him, but I think he’s kind of queer. He talks funny too, but maybe that’s just me. At least he knows a good tornado or snowstorm when he sees one. But I can see the daily sameness of the Arizona weather is getting to the guy already. We had a “monsoonal flow” start up this weekend and I thought he was going to get a boner right there on prime time TV, he was so excited.

But in all fairness, I suppose if one had just paid a hundred and fifty grand for a meteorology degree and then come up with the braniac idea of coming to Arizona to predict weather, even the most nerdish of us would quickly start thinking that dentistry, or even animal husbandry would have been a better idea.

I hope we get a good thunderstorm. He deserves it.
