Fail weather reporters

Jul 27, 2010 09:30

I'm sitting in the airport and thus actually watching the weather report on TV instead of just looking up the forecast online.

On the screen we see a picture of a large, reasonably spherical hail stone with a flexible measuring tape wrapped around it.  The tape shows that the circumference is a little over 18 inches.  What they say:

"The diameter of this record breaking hail is over 18 inches!  It is almost 8 inches wide!"

*facepalm*
