"spicy" weather-temps forecast

The weatherman smilingly gave a really "spicy" weather-temps forecast on the radio today, and so I just **assumed** (yeah, I know, I know... never a good idea!) that the wind was gonna be pleasantly scented with yummy delectable barbecue-flavors for a couple days. But it's actually had very little odor at all during this period, just as plain old ordinary air usually does... what a disappointment!
