I have been watching the Weather Channel.
When and why did they decide to start naming Winter Storms? Is it not bad enough that viewers have to deal with over acting drama queens, building hype and fear, and now they have to name each front that comes through an area? I mean, damn! Next they will be naming individual snow flakes...
Jim....."Yeah, it looks really bad out here. We have Roberto, Anna, and Rockie all piled up and blocking traffic...it's tragic!"
I mean these folks have lost their minds in how they overreact and that in turn drives the insanity everywhere else.
Our local news took advice from the Weather Channel and actually told people to go buy nonperishable food and gather in supplies. They said to get flashlights and batteries, fill your tub with water to drink. They sounded like a Zombie Apocolypse was racing towards us!!
The local grocers actually ran out of milk, bread and eggs. Complete shelves were stripped of canned goods. It was a mess, a needless mess.
See I live in the SOUTH.
Tomorrow the forcast is snow! Low temperature 29 degrees F. High temperature 34 degrees F. Thursday the high Temperature will be 45 degrees F. This weekend it will be in the mid 50's! Yeah, that snow is going to hang around a long, long time!
Now why the hell frighten people and have them rush out, spend money they may not have needed to when there ain't no real danger? I say it is unethetical for the so called meterologists to overreact like this and drive mass hysteria for a ratings blitz!
Also....
Why the hell is Al Roker in Socchi giving weather up dates? I mean, the outdoor events have snow making, bobsled tracks have ice making and the skating is indoors!!! What a duh-huh!!!!!!!
