Here in the Pacific Northwest, weather forecasting requires even more tentativeness than elsewhere. Storms in the Gulf of Alaska, deep gorges with furious winds, and rainy valleys and sounds combined with arid high deserts all seem to ensure low success rates for meteorologists' predictions. Crafty television meteorologists have adopted a coping strategy: Discuss what you have observed to have occurred today and yesterday, rather than what you expect to occur tomorrow. Pacific Northwest weatherpersons spend many minutes each day telling their viewing audiences how cold and wet it has already been in obscure parts of the region.
