Default 3 days to a week?

I run a painting business and a snowplowing business. Both rely heavily on the weather forecasting. I honestly have found that even within a 24hour period they are at best 40% right when it comes to timing and amounts. Temps seem to be the only thing they get correct on a regular basis. Just this year I’ve wasted time getting set up on a job only to have it rain 6 hours before it was predicted to.

One of the most valuable things I’ve learned in life and passed on to my boys. If you are not sure about something don’t try and make it seem like you are. People have a lot more respect for you of you admit you don’t know the answer, but will get back to them with the right answer when you find it.
