I don't think so. And I might have even believed it exists, if not for the source of this information.
Weathermen are infamous for being unreliable.
In the past the only people who have ever listened to these yahoos are couples planning picnics, and kids hoping for a snowfall so they can forgo their homework. In fact even if they say it will be sunny, people still throw an umbrella into their car. I suggest that weathermen concocted this story to try to appear as more than just poorly dressed comic relief for the news. Past attempts to be taken seriously have failed. But few people fell for that lame trick.
