Having taken a class on meteorology (and flunked it) many years ago at OU, it sure isn't as easy predicting the weather as the weatherguessers on TV make it sound. (Plus you get to play with crayons as well (blue and red ones to mark the cold/warm fronts.)
Even the best computer models (the latest tool for the weather forecaster) have been known to go wrong, especially in areas where weather prediction is tricky (mostly in the Plains states and Texas). To top it off, the panic mentality instigated by the newscasters is enough to set off a stampede to get the last of the needed items to ride out the approaching sh*tstorm.
