Does anybody know how one might get a job as a forecaster?
It's the only job that I know where you can consistantly screw up and still be employed. Also you can sleep on the job!

Sorry, just ranting. Went out yesterday on a long drive (1.5hr) to go where I wanted. The sun lasted all for an hour or two then was replaced with strong winds and cloud cover. That was for a day forecasted as Fine and 17.

Today was suppose to be rainining and windy. It's a picture perfect day of about 16/17 with a beautiful sunset. The light would of been beautiful to shoot in

Here you go.....
