πŸ’― correct on this. Not for today’s storms. Not for tomorrow’s snow. Not until AI can catch on to the weather leaders in my team @CNYCentral
This is AI garbage that at times is tough to read much less ZERO level of trust. All b/c this news team (& it's parent company) refuses to employ an actual human being aka: a Meteorologist Don't go to paywall.com for weather @CNYCentral syracuse.com/weather/2026/03…
