Some of you may have noticed the web site has some new links posted. If you tried the weather link today, about all you got was confusion, I'm guessing. I didn't see it myself, but we heard from Diane Rossi there were two very different forecasts. She decided the best bet was just looking out the window - and that's no surprise - even if the weather folks post only one forecast, their accuracy is often off the mark. Perhaps that's why they posted two choices today, to improve their chance of being right. Caption for picture: "A wet bird never flies at night."

We're looking into the problem and will let you know their reply. Here's what Fred sent:


Your site seems to have had two different forecasts for Sunday. I have pasted both forecasts below. What happened? Is this likely to happen often? We have a link on our site (www.joespond.org to your weather site, and we had an inquiry from a user regarding this discrepancy. Fortunately, there was a good outcome for our user. She looked out the window and put on jeans instead of shorts. Thank you.
