mediarological

Refers to the sensational and overly-dramatic "spin" dat radio/TV weather-forecasters put on fairly-mundane upcoming rain/wind/snow activities.

I heard a set of rather dire storm-warnings on the evening weather forecast, but I still went ahead and planned my returnables-collecting trek for the next morning. And sure enough, the day dawned just moderately overcast and slightly breezy, and it stayed that way all day, so the mediarological predictions did indeed turn out to be bunk, after all.
