Haiku Forecast
Wx and the City
By Ann Posegate
Forecasts can be complicated and uncertain. So, here's your plain and simple weather report for the day:
Goin' on a date?
Bring an umbrella for two
Thunderstorms likely.
(It's ok to count the syllables...I won't be offended.)
Can you Haiku the forecast too?
Just how likely are thunderstorms today? See our full forecast, and NatCast for tonight's game at Nationals Park.

Can we get relief?

Prediction for snow:

the city shuts down.

Weather is so easy:
"Snow, up to an inch or more"
How could that be wrong?

Ah, you wanted today's forecast...
Clouds are thickening.
Am I hearing thunder now?
Following it, rain?

Inspired by Andy:
Snow, up to an inch
or more. Were the models right?
Buried deep again.

The snow is falling
Everywhere else but here, darn
D.C. winters suck
Hahahahah...
Okay, here's another:
The thunder is here
The S.P.C. issues watch
Two hours too late
And another:
The ice and snow fall
Covering everything now
P.W.C. still open
lmao...can you tell there is a complaining pattern to my Haikus? Ahh..."complaining Haikus," what an oxymoron. What? You want me to make a NICE Haiku???
Ugh..fine.
The leaves are blowing
On this crisp Autumn morning
The school bell rings now
There, happy? :)

These haikus are great!
Thank you for posting them here.
I sometimes find that
Once I start talking
In haiku syllables, though,
It is hard to stop!

I think that we, as in those in eastern Loudoun and western Montgomery, are getting skunked again this year. It is either storms that develop east of us or those that sweep west and then fall apart as they enter western Loudoun. I remember another summer like this. About two or three years ago. I have occasion to be in Rockville quite a bit and it has been one torrential downpour after another.

Winds are picking up.
Dark clouds, thunder rumbles. Rain?
Happy 50, Dad!
