Two weeks ago in class, my professor assigned our first news
stories! The topic was Erie PA being labeled the snowiest city by the Golden
Snow Globe National Snow Contest. Last week we were all startled to find out
that Erie was not the snowiest city anymore; it appeared as though overnight Syracuse
NY accumulated about 7 magical inches of snow! Woah, where did that come from?
My fellow classmates and I brought it to the attention to our professor in
hopes to change the topic of our news story. Sadly the topic stayed the same.
But ironically the next day in my metrology class the topic of Erie being the
snowiest city with the population of 100,000 people came up again in the same scenario.
Apparently the makers of the website for the contest decided to play an April fool’s
joke on everyone! Well congratulations Golden Snow Globe You fooled us!
