What the heck happened with the weather? I wake up to hear of a high near 80, sunny. As the sun came up, where was it? At the polls standing in line? Nothing but clouds and fog all day. Temp never got out of the 60's. I came back from lunch and went to FOX for the temp.... nothing showing, went to the current conditions page, again, zippo. Temp info "unavailable". Went to the NOAA site... no temps there either! A while later I pulled up Howard's clip... time stamp was 12:34PM and Howard was showing the high to be 80. A short time later the temp finally appeared... 67, then down to 66 at 3PM, 65 as I type this.
Now here is why this qualifies for news... political news... someone conjectured that one of the candidates got China to help him/her out by making the weather cool for all the people standing in line... China has boasted that they can change the weather on command. Someone else added that they should have made the temps in the 90's, no breeze, hot sun and t-storms... to punish those people who waited until the last minute!
My question... how did FOX get the weather so wrong?

I am an Environmental Specialist with Hills. Cty. Basically, I am a "dumpster diver". I also do a lot of educational graphics design about the proper disposal of household chemical & electronics, litter, etc. My hobbies are very diverse... golf and reading, with sci-fi, forensic mysteries, and history being my favorites. My other passion is photography, mostly nature. Ever since experiencing my first hurricane in Florida, Cleo in 1964 when I was 15, when the eye went over my house, I have been fascinated with weather. I have a 99% accuracy... including predicting Charley's turn away from Tampa the night before he hit down south.
