THIS IS WHEN I REALLY FEEL FOR THE METS BECAUSE IT JUST SHOWS HOW DIFFICULT IT IS TO FORECAST AROUND HERE. THE WEATHER DOES WHAT IT WANTS. JUST ONCE THOUGH I WOULD LOVE TO SEE IT WORK THE OPPOSITE WHERE WE FORECAST LOW AND ACTUALLY GET SOMETHING MUCH BIGGER. IT LOOKS LIKE THERE WILL NT BE MUCH TO TALK ABOUT FOR AT LEAST THE NEXT WEEK AND A HALF.
