    I learned something from MLD today. I've always wondered what exactly they were talking about when they say there's a 40% chance rain, but never bothered to look it up before today.

    PoP = C x A where "C" = the confidence that precipitation will occur somewhere in the forecast area, and where "A" = the percent of the area that will receive measureable precipitation, if it occurs at all.
    So... in the case of the forecast above, if the forecaster knows precipitation is sure to occur ( confidence is 100% ), he/she is expressing how much of the area will receive measurable rain. ( PoP = "C" x "A" or "1" times ".4" which equals .4 or 40%.)

    But, most of the time, the forecaster is expressing a combination of degree of confidence and areal coverage. If the forecaster is only 50% sure that precipitation will occur, and expects that, if it does occur, it will produce measurable rain over about 80 percent of the area, the PoP (chance of rain) is 40%. ( PoP = .5 x .8 which equals .4 or 40%. )

    Get one of those big grill pans that lay on one side of the stove, so you have the side to work with.

    Affective Brain Lab asks for Prolific ID. Do I use my Mturk ID instead? Or do I just return the thing since it's borked already?
