"Chance drizzle"
My weather source on the web had an upcoming prediction today which reminded me of my grandmother. It was brief, appearing in this chart-like form:
Today Tonight

I could hear it spoken with my Grandmother's slightly broken English, Yiddish intonation, and especially that marker of her Eastern European or Russian Jewish background in word choice--"chance drizzle"-- minus any preposition, peculiar to look at, but perfectly understandable, especially to me.
