It was so warm this morning when I left for work, probably the warmest it's been in 3 weeks. At 6:50am it was 14.

what kind bullshit equipment do we really use to predict the weather? like seriously man fuck | Weather is an extremely fickle thing to measure. Often many extrenious factors can cause changes that are often missed or unpredicted. Despite this, many people blame weathermen despite the fact that they are simply making calculated guesses most of the time.

If we get this heavy rainfall, with the combination of all the leaves from this wind, there are going to be a LOT of clogged drainages and huge puddles along the curbs.

Stop talking about mumbo jumbo. What brand umbrella do you recommend, i've had those cheap $10 night market type ones before and they fail. And they flip with the slightest breeze. I'm looking for a compact one when retracted, large golf sized one, double layered (so wind can blow through it without trying to flip it). queeeeeeeeeeee
