Here's a question:

Why is the City Of Warrenton allowing petition gathering to happen on city property?

Local Radio Host Complains To U.S. Weather Service About The Weather

While I understand how difficult it can be to construct an accurate forecast 100% of the time, your average is well below what one would expect for the North Oregon Coast . If we were to track forecast to actual outcomes over any given period the result would be dismal.
