Brandon Roux sucks at his job

Post by MWmetalhead » Thu Oct 20, 2022 1:29 pm

He predicted partly sunny most of today and 50 to low 50s for highs.

As I'm typing this, it is snowing lightly and 34 degrees at the reporting station for Pontiac.

Where I'm located, there has been zero sun today and intermittent snow and rain.

I think the fella had no idea a shortwave system would pivot through the area today and drag down a heaping helping of cold air.

By the end of the day we had sun and 50-ish.

The sun popped out here beginning around 4:00 but the temp never got higher than 42. Still only 39 in Port Huron!

It got to 45 here, but that’s not saying much. The Weather app on my phone said 44 and rain which was much more accurate.

I was farther west between flint and Lansing… got 53 on the dash at one point… admittedly when I got to Southfield I think the best I could do was maybe 48 or so. Terrible for October.

The next 5-6 days look FANTASTIC. Mother Nature literally flipping a switch tomorrow morning.

Friday - Sunny and 60-65
Saturday - Sunny and 68-75
Sunday - Sunny and 68-75
Monday - Sunny and mid-70s

And the computer models are now slowing everything down and giving us possibly more 60s and 70s and dry weather even for Tuesday and Wednesday.

Lows in the 50s every night.

First freeze for many suburbs tonight. Many areas (especially those that saw late day clearing after underachieving mightily on daytime highs) will see upper 20s or low 30s for overnight lows.

NWS is several degrees too mild on predicted overnight lows for these areas.

I think many northern suburbs of Detroit will reach 60 or 61 for highs Friday. I think some forecasts I've seen of mid 60s is too optimistic for that region.

Speaking as someone that works outdoors, I am totally a-okay with no snow and the 68 degree weather.

The same with Dave Rexroth as he was wrong as well sun prediction as it was cloudy and rainy.

I haven't seen him on the air in quite a while, which is a shame. I do like him the best.

I sucked today. I thought 60 or low 60s but it's currently 68! It was 42 at this time yesterday. Amazing surge from a morning low at my house of 31.

A warm front will politely accommodate your heating needs.

I believe the temperature in Toledo got up to 70 yesterday. We're at 64 right now.
