Without the weather, what would people have to start conversations with? Also found on the Calgary Herald Q website.It would certainly suck to be CFCN weather guy David Spence on a day when the weather changes, just like that. Let's hope Mayor Bronconnier doesn't enforce this in our city; where all seasons of the year can happen in a 20 minute span. In Moscow, the mayor is proposing a fine which will kick the local weatherman in the butt if his forecasts are wrong. Mayor Yuri Luzhkov has gone so far as to dispatching cloud seeding planes in the sky to ensure it doesn't literally, rain on his parade. What happened to letting Mother Nature take her course? It's not all Luzhkov's fault though. It's not his fault his data comes from machines older than my dad. It's also not his fault he only has 3 weather towers where places like New York has 300. I think we're pretty lucky here in Calgary. Calgarians have come to expect that weather changes on a minute by minute basis. But could you imagine Bronconnier or any other Alderman proposing a law that will fine any one of our local weather people? On the plus side, Luzhkov has agreed a fine might be a good idea, as long as he gets a sweet bonus when his forecasts are right. I would certainly hope so.
