How To Wear White Moccasins

Why do you write so much for the weather forecast?


This question I was asked more than once, in truth, the complete application has been very often this: <<>>

This question is not me at all surprised, we have been accustomed since childhood to see the weather forecast at the end of the newspaper, perhaps next to horoscopes, or in the last thirty seconds of the newscast, that voice which explains the time off at breakneck speed, which look more like a tongue twister for a weather forecast. I mean all of us, we are not accustomed to spending a few minutes a day to the weather, only takes a few seconds to see through the weather symbols and we are already more than satisfied. The last remaining meteorologists, are being replaced with tissue-weather, people who are totally inexperienced in the matter, but certainly the most beautiful sights the eye of the beholder. When large disturbances are planned, the newspapers do not talk about, at most two lines that are written to warn the reader that the weather will return to strike such as the north, but the alert level or the alarm of civil protection is almost never not given news; to bottom, however, lies the beautiful bullet markers of lightning over the regions of Northern Italy, is then whether the reader back to that "lightning" to be shown 5 to 500 mm. The next day, the TG and newspapers become "beautiful" devoting ample space to the bad weather that has plagued entire regions, causing damage and casualties, unfortunately, very often in recent years, any disruption autumn arrives in the Mediterranean, is disaster in some area of \u200b\u200bItaly, and especially on TV, instead of increasing attention to the weather and explain in detail how will the weather all over the Italian territory, it is looking to cut even more space expected, forcing the meteorologist to do in 30 seconds the forecast for the whole of Italy and maybe having to have one or at most two symbols for each region. It is not difficult to understand that it is absurd to put a symbol only for a territory so vast, perhaps as large as the Sardinia: how often it happens that it rains in Olbia and Nuoro is the sun? Or make a cold Fonni and Cagliari temperatures are myths? If the time devoted to weather forecasts on TV these will be increasingly incomplete and we must look elsewhere ...

And here I come on stage, joking aside I also say, but more generally the Internet; using this feature, as you all know by now, you can see the weather is even faster than the TV, but much more detail, incorporating in one of the many weather sites on the common national interest and in the blink of an eye, there appear on the forecast all week. There are other weather sites that explain the time he has done and will do in the short, medium and long term, spend less than 6 items of daily minimum of two pages each, this is a small example of how long it takes, not only to explain to the reader the right time the next day, but also to understand why a certain event happens, like a drop in temperature or a wave of bad weather. Personally I never liked to read anything in a passive way, I always wanted to understand and see for himself all things, and also try to explain it to others so that they could then be checked individually. Returning to the weather, then with my articles, as well as write the local weather, try to explain the cause of (almost) everything happens above our heads, also trying to give you some suggestions as to provide on its own when, for example, time is changing, I hope I have responded fully to the initial question and to be fair, there also revealed that I put in my blog the so-called automatic weather in three days, with various markers for the city of Cagliari.

Before leaving a small tip: when you look at the weather, especially on the Internet, do not give much importance to those for seven or ten days, the real weather forecast does not exceed 72 hours, the rest are just trends that are often distorted with the passage of days.
