Although he was a qualified meteorologist, Hopkins ran up a terrible record of forecasting the weather for the TV news program.

He became something of a local joke when a newspaper began keeping a record of his predictions and showed that he’d been wrong almost three hundred times in a single year. That kind of notoriety was enough to get him fired.   

He moved to another part of the country and applied for a similar job. One blank on the job application called for the reason for leaving his previous position. 

Hopkins wrote, “The climate didn’t agree with me.”
