Idaho Falls Weather Stations Need 3D Maps

I understand the post….I just have no clue what comments 1-3 are saying. Aside from not being able to spell, what is Anonymous talking about in post 1? Then we’ve got Karlisle & Mcvash mocking him it seems in comments 2 & 3. Very strange indeed.

What I think their TRYING to say is: Why bother with these 3D maps when the weatherman can’t even forcast the weather 1 day out? I mean, what’s the point of having an 8 day forcast like Channel 8 has? Seriously. Sure the 3D maps may look pretty, but who cares what they look like if the weather forcast ends up being wrong to begin with? The thing is we’re dealing with amateur news stations/reporters in this city as it is so whats the point in putting money into something like this.
This seems to be a theme with Joe and perhaps one of the reasons he’s moving out of the state. He continues to post numerous complaints in his topics about this city and his life here. But perhaps doesn’t realize that he’s living in a small town and we’re fortunate to have what we do have & to be happy with it. He may be happier in Austin with their bike paths and 3D weather. Until he realizes one day what he’s given up with all the crime, the traffic, the (real)gangs, the high cost of living and rude people he & his family will be subjected to. Some people really don’t realize how good they have it. But once they step outside of lil ole Idaho and see how the big bad world really is, they may appreciate our little slice of heaven just a bit more. So I’m all for wishing Joe the best in his new adventure. I’m also thinking a documentary blog, documenting his move and new experiences in a new state would be interesting dontcha think? How bout it Joe?

I’m confused about the comments from Guest_007. You talk about Joe posting numerous complaints, but I have seen comments from you and many others elsewhere on this site complaining about different things. This thread is no exception.

First you slam the local news/weather professionals (you call them amateurs). Guess what, sometimes the forecast is right. Even several days in advance. But you probably don’t remember the times the forecast is correct. There are some talented media professionals in this area whether or not you choose to believe it.

There is no guarantee with a weather forecast and you really should not expect one. Why don’t you watch the forecast on CNN or the Weather Channel sometime (I think they do a 7-day forecast) and see if they are always right. Hold them to the same rigid standard you expect from the local stations. In fact at weather.com you can get a 10-day forecast for our local area. Are they amateurs too for even attempting to forecast that far ahead? And since you want to point out spelling errors of others, it’s “forecast” not “forcast.”

Then in an about face you proceeded to tell Joe how fortunate we are to have what we have here. A slice of heaven you say. That’s what confused me. If you believe your own words, you should be happy to live here in Hickville with its amateur media people. For somebody who thinks this place is so great you seem to complain a lot.
