You mean it bugs you when the weatherman on the local news tells you to dress warmly or take an umbrella??

But how would we survive without this?

You consider this information a "safety tip"?
Okaaaay.

And, by the way, for a warm coat or umbrella, all I would really have to do is open a window to find out if it's cold, or look at the raindrops on the window pane to know if I needed an umbrella.
But, then, I DON'T rely on the weatherpeople to know for sure, either. They have been known to be wrong. That doesn't annoy me, either. That is such OLD, OLD news, the weather forecast being wrong, that I take it in stride.

Imagine how we survived without T.V. telling us all this information and warning us about such common sense things. How DID we survive?
Lol. We DID have the old folks to tell us when it was going to rain -- they always felt it in their joints.
And, of course, there was (and still is) always the Farmer's Almanac...you remember, the one with the hole in the upper left hand corner? :o)
