Arf-Arf Mayor de Blasio,
The word is that you and School Chancellor Farina were in the doghouse about the weather! That’s ruff.
I’m a 3 ½ pound Yorkie who lives in New York City. In really bad weather I pee on the New York Times & The Post. Of course, I read them first. That’s how I found out about you and the Chancellor’s weather predicament in keeping the schools open. Please don’t feel too bad. Even trained weather humans who study the weather aren’t always accurate.
I’m thinking that with more winter weather coming up again this week, maybe I could lend a paw in helping you pawcast the weather? My partner, Meteorologist Ron Trotta, and I have done over 450 weather pawcasts online. And as the weather team for the prestigious Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, we did a long range pawcast 10 days before the big show. Unlike all the other weather humans, we said there was NOT going to be a big mega snowstorm – and we were right!
Believe it or not, I am also the furry muse for my 2-legged Mom’s new children’s book, Schmitty The Weather Dog:DayDream. It’s about an NYC dog who overcomes obstacles and naysayers to study the weather and help her 2-legged weatherman Dad, who has a hard time predicting the weather.
Hey, maybe you can join me when I’m at an NYC school for one of my Schmitty The Weather Dog Weather/Science Assemblies. You can read my book to the students and inspire a new generation of weather humans to get the weather right!
Students giddy with excitement learning about the weather with moi & Meteorologist Ron at the Claiborne Pell School in Newport, RI.
Mayor DeBlasio, I’m not big enough to help fill in potholes or shovel snow, but I do have a nose for the weather. I would like to offer my services in pawcasting the weather for the New York City schools for you anytime. Who needs Al Roker when you can have Schmitty The Weather Dog! Arf-Arf!
No matter the weather, I’m here if you need me.
Arf-Arf,
Schmitty The Weather Dog
