Jokester morning meteorologist Joe Snedeker at WNEP-TV in Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, Pa. is celebrating his 50th birthday — and his colleague came up with a clever way to mark the occasion.

The temperature for all seven days? 50, of course.

Meanwhile, a Denver station lost power and had to get creative with its weather graphics as well.
