So take it

The weather segment on the TV news

--------------------------------------

Weatherman: Good evening ladies and gentlemen. Here is today's weather forecast.

It's not very good; I'm afraid there's a storm coming up.

Man: Oh, you said, you predicted there would be sunshine for the rest of the week.

Weatherman: Well, you can never be sure what's going to happen anyway. Don't interrupt.

As I was saying, there is a storm coming up because there is warm air moving from the south

which is meeting cold air from the north.

Man: So, that's why we have storms. Warm air is meeting cold air?

Weatherman: Yes. As I was saying... what was I saying?

Man: You were talking about the storm.

Weatherman: Oh, oh, yes. There's a nasty storm coming, I'm afraid.

Man: Which means that it'll be stormy and windy and rainy with lots of thunder and lightning?

Weatherman: Yes. Cloudy, rainy, windy, with lots of thunder and lightning.

Would you sit down? Who's doing this weather forecast, you or me?

Man: You are. You are the weatherman, so take it.

Weatherman: Thank you. And now for today's temperatures.
