A Viewer Comments About WBOC's Dan Satterfield
His inaccuracies only make me (and many others) want to troll him harder. Thanks for posting. If you're going to be in a position to make forecasts, knowing a select people are going to rely on it, then it's fair game to judge where due. This isn't WBOC's first and only blunder. For Christ sakes, we have a few students in college on Delaware who can predict weather better than him, with MORE RELIABILITY. If you want to be Delmarva's news leader, then lead us! It must be a joke to those whom are active on sites that allow input and comments from the common folk that this impacts. It proves that money doesn't mean anything without a team behind it who knows what they are doing. Good day, Salisbury News.
Bully rationalizing
ReplyDeleteWhen are the sheep going to figure this out? Our country stopped spending on space. Our satellites barely work. The Obama Administration has done more harm than the sheep will know.
ReplyDelete"We have a few students on Delaware ", really , maybe a few "IN" Delaware , students should take a spelling course . We don't predict weather for Christ sake , he already knows the weather , Christ gives us the weather.
ReplyDeleteIf in fact your students can predict the weather , bring it .
Christ does not predict the weather either! The weather is affected by the tides and the moon, it's SCIENCE!WOW!
DeleteI can't stand it when stations refer them as "chief" meterologist. I almost expect them to be wearing an Indian war bonnet with warpaint on. They are nothing more than "weather readers" who cull their information from the same sources you and I can get on the internet.
ReplyDeleteAll he has to say is "I THINK its going to rain tomorrow but God controls the weather so I am not certain. It's going to be dark tonight and who really cares the temperature since we most all will be inside or asleep anyway. The sun will come out tomorrow so it will be light enough to go to work or school. Since you people can't really feel the difference between 46 degrees and 50 degrees I will simply say take a light jacket or wear a sweater tiomorrow". Thanks you for letting me show up on the newscast so I can get paid. Sincerely, Dan the weater reader man. We have no "chiefs" here.
God does not control the weather!
DeleteCrazy idea - if you don't like the show turn the channel.
ReplyDelete6:55 clearly you live in s shell! We have more satellites in space and in production now than has ever been! If you only knew the technology that is going up in space, it would amaze you!
ReplyDeleteI think he analyzes too many sources. My advise is to wake up, look outside and predict the weather for the day. Works for me!
ReplyDeleteWOW!!! Salisbury citizens trying to chase ANOTHER person outta town??? You people really thing the station cares what you all think??? The reason Salisbury is failing in everything. Business, education, health care ect??? IT'S PEOPLE! !!!! You ever noticed every area around Salisbury thrives except Salisbury? ?? Without Perdue or SU what do you have???? Backwoods retards with backwards ideology! !!!!
ReplyDeleteJust to clarify the market size comment... Put this into perspective.
ReplyDeleteSalisbury has 0.139 % of the country's television households
Milwaukee, which is getting to the size where it is a decent market... Ranked at 35, it still does not have a full % of American television households.
Here's how it works. My ex wife works in radio in Minneapolis which is currently 15th market. (it bounces up and down a market size, occasionally) Her very first job in Television, right out of broadcast school was in Duluth as a 6 oclock news anchor. Fresh faced, raw, inexperienced and untested. She was there three years and moved on.
That's what happens in Salisbury. Anyone with any talent is busting their butts to develop a demo reel that will get them into a major market. What you're left with is the sludge like Hammond. Enough said.
Predictive science is not infallible. The models and algorithms they use to predict local weather are also being used to sell us the anthropogenic global warming.
ReplyDeleteAnyone that thinks these crystal ball rubbing charlatans have any idea what will happen in 20 years need only look at how accurate they were during the last week.
Not only that Invictus, the modeling software used to develop the global warming model is flawed. It was proven last year by a down under scientist. I'm sorry, but I don't have the link at my fingertips. I'm sure google will review the study.
ReplyDeleteHe proved, what I've been saying for 10 yrs. "It's the sun, dummy." The sun has been in an active storm mode for 15 yrs and things were heating up. It is now said to be going into a 20 yr cooling mode as of 2012. gee, we've had some cold, snowy winters lately, go Figure. if you're old enough to remember the 60s, you may also remember we were told we were on the verge of an ice age. d'oh, we were at that time, in a cooling sun period.
IT's The sun!!!
And yes, it fluctuates. Hence, Climate Change. Global warming some years, Global Cooling other years.
the global warming spiel spouted by governments is a tool to encourage taxation on an international level. that is all.
My goodness Dan , your predictions have caused a stir among the knowledgeable . Maybe they should change it , no more weather predictions , just all facts . Then it will create a domino effect on all weather channels . Then the whole world will be beating up all forecasters. To forecast is to predict or make a statement of that MAY be true or not.
ReplyDeleteBest job with zero, absolutely ZERO accountability - meteorologist!
ReplyDeleteGood or bad forecast, at least he has a good work ethic and pays taxes.
ReplyDeleteI will save my anger for all the fake disability recipients, lazy slugs who say they can't find a job, welfare mammas having babies I have to support because she won't, higher car insurance rates because the illegals can't seem to drive unless they are drunk.........I feel better now but things are only getting worse in this once great country.....
12:33 Don't forget last term/last year POTUS.
ReplyDeleteAre there lesser ranks of meteorologist than chief? Like meteorologist third class, or meteorologist recruit?
ReplyDeleteAll weather everywhere could be predicted for eternity if it were not for a mathematical aspect that goes by the name "chaos". It is the aspect that one very small change in the mathematical formula has changed which then grows in magnitude at time goes by. Check it out, you'll see I'm correct.
ReplyDeleteMeteorology is the only job where you can be wrong all the time and still have a job.
