The meteorological prophets, also known as “weather smack,” had to cancel their fall meeting scheduled for last Friday due to the corona pandemic. Instead of around 800 people in Illgau SZ, the meeting was held and filmed in a small group. The association published the recording of the film on its home page.
Martin Holdener predicted a “very white Christmas”. In December a lot of snow fell on the plains and football was no longer possible in stadiums. Cross-country skiing is possible, it is also a sport. Kari Hediger said that at Christmas there would be enough snow at higher altitudes, but lower down there would be “Pflotsch.”
Put your skis under the roof
Other weather prophets also assume winter weather and snow for Christmas. Martin Horat, for example, advised in his forecast to put the skis under the roof at Christmas, otherwise they would be in the snow the next morning.
There could also be some good skiing in winter. Kari Hediger said that winter would go down in history. The cash registers in the ski areas would ring because the snow cannons would freeze and they would not be needed. Martin Holdener also saw a lot of snow coming. It takes two summer men to leave again. That is why he advises buying two pairs of skis.
Corona was also a problem
Gaga’s health advice was also given at the meeting. One of the prophets said that anyone who takes a sip of herbal liqueur three times a day and eats it “feiss” does not have to be vaccinated against the crown.
Weather enthusiasts take the event with humor. An assessment from 2018 also shows that things may not always be taken so seriously.
As part of her Matura thesis, Lucerne student Josiana Steiger verified the accuracy of the predictions made by Martin Horat and his colleagues. The result: Apparently less than half of the forecasts made by amateur meteorologists actually apply. (fr / sda)
