Tomorrow Will Probably Be Nice Weather

Yesterday was cold. The temperature was below zero, but it was not the air that made me feel the cold—it was the wind that kept blowing. Today is cold too, but the wind is weaker than yesterday, so it should not feel as cold. According to the weather forecast, tomorrow will be clear and sunny, so it should be nice weather. Looking up from the book I was reading, I thought about this. Then I remembered something related to the weather forecast: it was during my fourth year of university. I left school alone and went to Hefei for an exam.

I had my exam admission ticket and ID card, of course, and I also bought pencils and other supplies. I even repeatedly checked the number of the train I needed to transfer to. Before I left, my roommate asked, "What will the weather be like?" I took out my phone, looked at it, and murmured, "Yeah, it looks good—sunny for all three days, so I don't need to bring an umbrella." Then I picked up my suitcase and headed to the station. It was about 7 p.m. when I arrived at my destination. Since there were many examinees, I booked a hotel about three kilometers from the exam venue. It was getting dark, so I planned to rest there for the night and head to the exam hall the next morning.

After taking a bath, I lay down on the bed and started watching short videos. I heard the strong wind hitting the window glass. Suddenly, it crossed my mind that when I had checked the weather before leaving, I had forgotten to switch the location setting. Thinking that, I got up from bed and looked at the local weather: an 80% figure and a heavy-rain icon appeared. Instantly, my back grew hot and I tensed up. I barely managed to fall asleep amid anxiety. But strangely, the next morning when I woke up, there was not even a cloud in the sky, let alone rain.

Looking back now, weather forecasts can sometimes be wrong. So will tomorrow be nice weather or not? No one can know before it comes.
