WEATHER: "No" Forecast
By Carol Erickson
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- No Forecast? Well, not actually No Forecast, but a forecast of No. No snow, no shoveling, no ice, no freezing rain, no storms tomorrow, no problem.
Rain treats everyone fairly today – we all get it. But complainers, I can hear you. IT IS RAIN. That's it.
Remember we swore we wouldn't grumble about anything again if the temperatures got above freezing and the snow stopped falling? We have met both of those criteria. We will pick up .75 to 1 inch of rain today, but that and temperatures in the 50's will erase even the most stubborn, filthy piles of parking lot snow.
The soggy ground gets a good blow dry on Sunday with winds gusting close to 40 mph. Irish dancers better put weights around their nimble feet so they don't get carried away during the St. Patrick's parade tomorrow.
Oh, and let's not forget today is Pi day...add an 'e' if you want cherry, otherwise celebrate math and the (pi) 3.1415 ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. Which circles us back to zero. Our no forecast looks like a yes, even holding an umbrella.
