1. Apart from extreme weather, hot or cold, meteorology is actually dead
boring. I mean taking temperatures and rain fall readings are actually

elusive cold spell keeps you all going.


Then you have successfully missed the whole point.
Collecting the data, analysing them and identifying patterns in them IS
the interesting point.
Sudden changes or opposite extremes can seriously ruin a good trend.
