This is hardly the case. Local conditions may 'Vary within a matter of a few miles. You may get a shower in your school section when the forecast called for a clear day, but at the same time the general fprecast for entire country- side was clear weather. The weather forecast is not an agreement that you will have certain types of weather at certain times. The forecast, is simply an estimate of what can be reasonably expected, all things being favourable. Winds may change direction, or other natural or unnatur- al events may completely change the Picture within a matter of minutes', This is something that the weather man cannot control, only estimate. So, don't be too tough with the weather forecaster if he makes a mistake. Even weather forecasters are human. This is the season of the year when the amateur weather forecasters have a field day. For Want of something else to do, they look around for signs that are supposed to indicate whether we are going to have 'a mild or hard winter, whether the roads are going to be opened or closed, and other such points. We read of the butcher who says that the size of a pig's spleen is a wonderful indication of this, and he forecasts a light winter. Remember how Grandmother used to forecast the winter weather by the number of pin feathers on the fowl? The activity of the squirrels is supposed to indicate what we can expect in winter weather. Our furry friends are supposed to be good weather forecasters, if you look over the density of their fur. Bees and their stocks of 'honey are supposed to be fair indications, and the wild ducks and geese seldom head south until they have to, so this is generally considered when amateur forecasters make up their forecasts.
