You do know sci = science

Define science, pillock.

You do know that there is a controlled amount of rectification in
modern meteorology that renders it merely an au fait folk lore do you?

Once upon a time the best that a wise farmer had to go by was the run
of events at the start of the year. And if he had an history to back it
up from his ancestors or somesuch it was usually adequate.

In the last century the weatherlore got replaced by statistical
analysis that as often as not got it wrong. These days there is a
greater bank of data to work from but it is still basically going by a
previous turn of events.

All I am doing is approaching it from the more appropriate direction of
finding out what size the cap is rather than looking at all the heads.

If this is too much for you to take in, kindly place me in your kill
file sand **** off and play with something else you fool.
