It's a rain 'story'

Since when did weather become about 'stories'.

I kind of get, although at the same time, not get at all the whole fashion 'stories' thing.
When they say, Autumn 2011 is looking like a clogs story.

But then again, it's not much of a story is it?

I mean, it's not really much of a page turner. There's only really one page to turn.

Once upon a time.
Well, Autumn 2011 to be precise.

It was fashionable to wear clogs.

Because some dufus said so.

The end.

Not really going to make those best seller charts now is it?

But weather.

Whenever I hear weather presenters saying "Today in the Western half of the country, it's a rain story"

It's not a rain story.

It's going to rain.

Then it'll stop raining for a bit, just long enough for you to put your washing out, then it'll rain again.

The end.

No more stories.

Footnote.

I also heard a weather forecaster say, so tomorrow, if you live in London, you've been getting used to 22'c, say hello to 14'c.

That's right.

We're all going to walk out of the door tomorrow and say hello to 14'c.

I just wish they'd stop trying to sex up the weather.

It's the weather.

Just let it be weather.

It's enough.

It doesn't need stories and we don't need to say hello to it.
