My city is located on a rocky slope and it's surrounded by hills on one side and the sea on the other. So here we have a special microclimate that is different than the climate around us. We have sunshine in the city when it's rainy and cloudy just few kilometers away. So it is very hard to predict the weather and it kinda never happens what they say on TV. The famous meteorologists avoid mentioning my city on TV because they know that they can make a big fail in the career. So we never know for sure what to wear and how to prepare ourselves for what's coming from the skies.
But still, we have our own methods for weather predictions, my grandma is one of them, although not so reliable as one I met today! So first, let me tell how it happened.
I was passing yesterday morning in front of a church that is near to my office. This old lady (down on the photo) was leaving the church and started staring at me.
I noticed that she walked just behind me, but when she realized that she and her cane can't walk as fast as me, she called me:
"Young man! Excuse me for bothering you, I just noticed that your neck is stiff and I wanted to ask you do you expose your neck to the sunshine and warm temperature?"
Well, when an unfamiliar person approaches me with questions about my neck stiffness, I usually have two different answers, the choice depends on the situation:
a) Go to hell and take care of your own business!
b) I just took a viagra and it got stuck in my throat!
But since she just left the church, I decided to be polite and told her that I have some specific health problem.
Then she said:
"Me too!"
I didn't say anything on that, but these were my thoughts:
"I am 32, you must be at least 92 and we have the same health problems! Beautiful!"
Then she mentioned that it's gonna be a cloudy day because of the pain in her neck! Suddenly I realized that I talked to a professional meteorologist for this area. I decided to use this opportunity to extract as much data as it was possible, so I started to ask her some things.
These are results:

Thank you!!!
A viagra stuck in your throat, hahaha. Great!
I guess you didn't ask her, but what if she has a pain in the ass? High-pressure approaching? 😆
Lol! :))))))))))
Very nice post
Znaci oplakah :))))) Hvala sto me nasmeja ovoliko danas...
Vijagra u grlu LOL, hit!
A sjora...e to su stari barometri...
Bura..jugo...sve sve znaju
i to u decimalu :)))
HAHAHA, True story - I was at sea one day, and my grandfather phoned me to tell me that his wrists are hurting so the winds are probably going to change and that I have to be careful. Best part of the story is that in a couple of hours Weather changed.
LOL! Is he single? we should hook him up with this lady
No, my grandma is still alive, both of them are close to a century old now. Now that I think about it - a century old being with supernatural powers - I think he is an X man
Should make a Steemit account for him!
Not a bad idea. Thinking of his superhero name - maybe "the Seer"
I appreciate your whalepower
The older generations are always wiser! Unfortunately we are so busy in life and technology that we didnt learn their skills. And yes young man, you need to expose yourself to the sunshine. The good warm days are coming and even a bit of sun gazing will do a lot for you :)
Thanks :)
Wow, thank you for this. I always knew that some people can predict weather trough pain in their body, but the first time someone actually put the precise info connected with certain pain.
That's cute. My grandma could predict bad weather when her arthritis would act up. She was always right too.
Oh common! I almost peed my pants reading this! Hilarious 😆😆😆
Did you pay her for the information she gave you? This is worth gold, hold on to that granny and don't let go! 😆
