Philly forecaster offers ‘wine forecast’

Philadelphia forecaster Chris Sowers offered up a “wine forecast” for soon-to-be-snowbound viewers morning.

The graphic, which was posted to the WPVI meteorologist’s Twitter profile but has since been deleted, featured what appeared to be a typical weather map with purple and gray bands depicting projected snowfall amounts — except the bands were labeled with the number bottles of wine to purchase — ranging from one all the way to 25.

Much of the Northeast, including Philadelphia, is expected to be slammed by a late winter snowstorm.

The graphic’s banner read “How much wine to buy today?”

Apparently the gag didn’t go over well since Sowers later deleted the tweet, though it’s not exactly clear why it was removed, but, of course, the tweet still lives on in Google’s cache.

Hope they all ducked across city limits and stocked up on Cokes, too.

All you can carry seems like a proper answer to the how much should you buy question...
