Hey Andrew - your in-house snow forecast model SUCKS

Post by MWmetalhead » Sun Feb 10, 2019 6:09 pm

What on earth is wrong with Andrew Humphrey of WDIV?!?!

This clown just showed a forecast model that indicated the I-696 corridor is going to receive less than an inch of snow in total accumulation from tonight's system.

That same model also showed the heaviest totals (close to 2 inches) near the Ohio border.

Newsflash Andrew - it's snowing hard across Detroit's northern suburbs right now. We're probably gonna wind up with 2+ inches here. There's less moisture downriver and near the border.

Why would he show a forecast model that is clearly wrong? :rolleyes

For me it’s Channel 7 or Newsradio 950 for the weather. 2, 4 and WJR Radio are 9 times out of 10 wrong.

I use my Grandfathers method, he'd hang a 12 inch piece of rope on a tree in the backyard, he would check it and if it was wet it was raining, if it was cold it was freezing, if was dry it was sunny and if it was gone it was windy.

Between 2 and 3 inches fell at my house. Much more than the 0.4 inches that Andrew's awful weather forecast indicated.

I saw Randy and the Rainbows on some oldies TV show about 30 years ago,and Randy was a moon-faced schlub ala Bill Haley. Lou Christie's "Lightning Strikes" topped the charts Feb. 16,1966,Christie's 23rd birthday. (Christie,born Lugee Sacco ,will be 76 Saturday,and also was far from studly . )

By the way,isn't Andrew Humphrey old enough for Social Security ? Why can't they get a buxom blonde to replace him ?

I think he ripped and read the NWS forecast which was indeed calling for less than an inch as far north as Pontiac...

One to two inches of snow overnight and then freezing rain causing a quarter inch of ice on top of that, which will start melting by lunch. The temp will be in the high 30s by then.

Watch it be nothing like this

Im surprised you got that much information out of an Andrew Humphry forecast. The guy seems to ramble on and on, saying hello to this city, or people going to this event, or people in this or that town and hardly even speaking of the forecast. Ill listen to his 5 minute weather report and not get any information out of it.
