Milestone: snowpack gone

Not as exciting as “ice out” on the big lakes, but today was the first day I didn’t bring out the snowpack ruler since winter started. Spring is on its way!

ChatGPT can imitate that weather person you can’t stand

64.2°F, 99% RH, overcast and raining, no wind, barometer 29.824 inHg

Prompted with the data and the request to report it like a friendly weather report, Chat GPT responded with this:

Well, hello there, folks! It’s your friendly weather reporter here, bringing you the latest scoop on what’s happening outside. So, grab your umbrellas and raincoats because it’s a bit damp out there!

Currently, the temperature is a comfortable 64.2 degrees Fahrenheit, making it just right for those who enjoy a mild climate. But don’t forget, it’s feeling quite humid with a relative humidity of 99%. That’s a whole lot of moisture in the air, so you might want to keep a cool drink handy to stay refreshed.

Now, as you glance out your windows, you’ll notice that the skies are dressed in a cozy overcast blanket. Those clouds are working hard to keep that sunshine at bay, so you might want to postpone any sunbathing plans for now.

But wait, there’s more! The heavens have opened up, and we’ve got some gentle rain making its way down. It’s the kind of rain that’s perfect for a cozy day indoors with a good book or a hot cup of cocoa. No need to worry about strong winds today – the air is still and calm, giving you a peaceful and serene atmosphere.

And for those of you who like to keep an eye on the pressure, the barometer is reading a steady 29.824 inches of mercury. So, it looks like our weather pattern is holding steady for the moment.

Remember, folks, a little rain never hurt anyone! So, grab your rain gear, find a cozy spot, and enjoy the soothing sounds of nature’s orchestra. That’s all from me, your friendly weather reporter. Stay dry and have a wonderful day!”

I think I’ll stick with just the facts. Or, I might just find a cozy spot, grab my umbrella, a cool drink, a good book and a hot cup of coffee and enjoy my day!
