Northeast Ohio Weatherman Admits to Forecasting Weather by Throwing Darts at Board


A local Northeast Ohio Weatherman has admitted that he no longer uses high-tech forecast equipment to let people know what the winter weather will be doing in the coming weeks.

“Honestly, the dart board is just a good as any fancy computer I used to have. They’re both about 80% accurate, but this way is much more fun,” said News Channel 7 Meteorologist Mark Johnsonoffski.

By throwing darts at a board, the meteorologist is able to come into work two hours later.

“It saves a lot of time on research and all that technical crap I used to do,” replied Johnsonoffski.

Aspiring meteorologist on the weather team, Jenna Hanson, was surprised to learn the unique ways of predicting weather.

“At first I didn’t believe it, but once I saw the board it all made sense. Throwing a dart, or sometimes a pencil, at the weather board is just as good as a multi-million dollar radar satellite,” said Hanson.

It should be noted that the News Channel 7 weather team currently holds the second most accurate forecast in Northeast Ohio, right behind the News Channel 6 weather team, which predicts the weather by the feeling in their knees.
