(Local) So weather predictions were wrong?

Reading last week on The Weather Network, A-News, and on websites researching weather for the weekend just past for Windsor, they all said the same, a grim wet weekend, and will last untill wednesday. First of all, looking out my window right now, the sun is out and its nice and warm. And not counting the literal spit it gave last night, its been a total opposite weekend than forcast. I do beleive that is a problem alot of people think to themselves, how come weather broadcasters/researchers are wrong 85% of the time? Now i can understand long term forcasts can change, so if thats the case, why even do long term? When there is a good chance it will change. Anyway, its a good thing it didn't rain this weekend, as the Emancipation events and others took place Downtown. Windsor Pride 2009 begins tomorrow, so it would be great for the weather to stay as it is right now. In my eyes though i can see after i write this article, it will rain.
