No problem. I appreciate the correction. When I was typing bellwether, I attempted, “bellweather,” which of course is wrong. Thought, okay, obviously two words.

Bell weather, noun referring to weather so murky that everyone must wear a bell to announce his presence so as not to collide with other persons. Also known as foghorn weather.
If the wind is blowing in your direction then the bell will ring, so it’s Bell Weather................;^)
