Articles Lifestyle Mr Old Man The Weather App Is Also Very… “Weather” By Mr Old Man Posted on 8 seconds ago 2 min read 0 0 0 Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Google+ Share on Reddit Share on Pinterest Share on Linkedin Share on Tumblr Yesterday, I checked the weather app on my iPhone and saw that Da Nang was expected to have rain all day Sunday — 100% chance. That meant a very high chance of losing my morning swim and bike ride. I was even thinking of canceling my coffee date with a friend who was visiting from out of town. After all, if he kept his promise and showed up, we might both end up wet as drowned rats. At 5:20 a.m., my alarm went off. I checked the app. Still raining — at least according to the little cloud-and-raindrop icon. 6 a.m. Still raining. 7 a.m. Still raining. 8 a.m. Still raining. 9 a.m. … Still raining. Well, there goes the plan! I stayed in bed for a while, then finally got up and opened the door. Not a single drop of rain. The sky was clearing up. So I went to the beach, soaked up some sunshine, then jumped into the sea and swam a few hundred meters. By then, the sun was already high in the sky. Now I’m sitting in a café with my friend, talking about the weather after a bike ride around town. I checked the app again. The forecast had changed: Sunny until noon. Rain in the afternoon. Are you sure about that!? So… how can a weather app be so “weather” itself? __ Mr. Old Man
