There is nothing reliable. They'll tell us it's raining hard and we walk outside to sunshine and no rain ever comes. They'll tell us it's sunshine and we are getting a rainstorm.

Wind has been getting worse due to climate change. Predictions for whether it will freeze or not are laughable. I have an animal sanctuary and not knowing what to expect can be a challenge.
