>>Last weekend they said the same thing and nothing happened. What makes this weekend any different? The weather is a joke in this area.
Said what last weekend? The forecast was for rain…this weekend it is for sunny.
What you may not realize that while some parts of our reading area had little or no rain last Saturday, other parts had 5+ inches. Just like some people had very little rain this afternoon, while other readers had 6-8 inches. That’s the nature of the weather in our part of the world.
