Why Did the National Hurricane Center Blow It on Earl?
I am always greatly amused to see grown men (metro-sexual?)try to advance the hype of a storm or hurricane by standing out in the weather. They tell us the strength of the wind, the accumulated inches of rainfall and the heights of waves – all while wearing their ‘oil skins’ and leaning into the wind to bear witness to their bravery. Heraldo Rivera (sp) instantly comes to mind.
Of course this always happens AFTER the mayor / governor has ordered evacuation of the area, so I wonder whom they are trying to impress? Maybe after one of them finally gets killed by flying debris they will finally come to realize they can provide the same information to the viewing public from behind their hotel window!
