Weather is retiring with him, right?

For serious.

I don't check random weather reports/apps in this town. I just check in with Tom Skilling.

That's a long standing relationship of trust that I am not going to be able to replicate easily...if ever.

Hope this does not devolve into me stalking Skilling on Twitter so I know what coat to wear in March.

Okay hear me out.

A Tom Skilling hologram for WGN.

Once he's retired, use AI to replicate his voice, mannerisms, etc.

You could even make it so Tom Skilling himself can help personalize the bot.

Xfinity is down for "performance upgrades".



So we're doing performance upgrades, with no warning, during a Winter Storm, causing outages during peak business hours.

Seems more likely the storm caused trouble and they are repairing the damage.

I swear Xfinity will shit on your carpet and then apologize for not wearing the shoe-slip-ons.

"We've had no outages this year, Congressman. Merely a plethora of network performance issues!"

All I've had is rain for the past 4 hours.. Everything is cleaned up, half of the snow has melted.
