Sunny Sevens

The forecast for Oshkosh was easy enough, it was dry both days with not a lot of expected variance. However, Tuesday warmed up exactly 7 degrees for both the low AND high temps, slightly more than most were expecting. Well, the Weather Channel expected it at least, securing a fairly comfortable victory.

Monday: High 39, Low 19.
Tuesday: High 46, Low 26.
Forecast Grade: A-C

Brighter Days

In our last forecast before “The Incident” we looked at Riverside, California, which was in the midst of a string of uncharacteristically rainy days as we approached the weekend. Ah, but what an allegory for our site, no? The good news was, things were starting to warm up as the next week began even if there was a little bit of light rain in the area. And now, with the website back up and running, we can see brighter days on the horizon as well! That said, the Weather Service had the top forecast for the day. Oh well.
Sunday March 10th, High 59, Low 46
Monday, March 11th, Rain reported, not measured High 64, Low 41

Grade: B-C

We can still verify!

Thanks to our RSS feed, which apparently doesn’t get purged just because the content of the entire website is obliterated, we still know the contents of our post for Ocean City New Jersey, before the big calamity. The good news for us is that the forecast went very well for us, as Victoria-Weather claimed forecast supremacy, even as we fumbled with our own very existence. A quick wave moved through town and lead to a bit of snow, thanks in large part to temperatures that were cooler than expected…. by everyone but Victoria-Weather.
