I want this guy's job

This is from a local National Weather Service meteorologist commenting on our upcoming weather for spring, and I quote, "For the next three months, he said, the state has "equal chances of being above or below normal temperature-wise and precipitation-wise." You're kidding! I'm just wondering how much money they pay this guy.

Being an accountant, I would take a ton of flack for reporting, "Over the next three months, I give a 50% chance of hitting our budgeted numbers, or not, you know, I'm just not willing to take a stand on that issue yet."

Our external auditors are in-house at the moment, just for kicks, I'm going to have to find a way to work that answer into one of their queries...

You'll have to let me know if it works - my husband is an accountant too, I'll have to tell him what you said, he'll get a kick out of it! He's always complaining about the weather forecasters too. ;-)
