I was that kid as well. So much so that my second grade teacher made me the "official" classroom weatherman. She even provided me with one of those flannel maps that you could (if I'm remembering correctly, it was 37 years ago) stick another flannel object to. She had made me fronts, suns, clouds, snowflakes, and raindrops, and every morning I would arrange them on the map like a TV met would.
Too bad I didn't pursue that passion, do better in school, and get a meteorlogical degree.
