If I am sitting in my cubicle today and someone calls out "Hey - an aircraft went off the runway at XXXX, then the first thing crossing my mind would probably be "I wonder what the weather was?"
The tone of your post indicated otherwise. Actually, in this day and age, the first things I think of is "I wonder if was something fatigue related?".

The choice of the word "alibi" is pretty poor in something like this. But feel free to disagree. If maybe you aren't thinking SOMETHING else maybe worthy of an "alibi", maybe you are't using your head? Don't really appreciate the condescending tone.

You seem to be jumping to conclusions about NWS problems as quickly as you are jumping on others asking about weather conditions. Supposition goes both ways.

Google "EMB145 uncommanded nose wheel steering".
Again, don't really appreciate the condescending tone you're taking.
