Quote:The only reason it wasn't as bad as they thought it would be is because it turned a little. I can't believe people think this storm stuff is an exact science!!

Sometimes it hurts me a little to see someone talk about how they'd love to get paid to be wrong all the time. Seriously, spend a severe weather day in the field with meteorologists. It's almost impossible to predict what the storm right in front of you is going to do in half an hour, so why people expect that forecasts three days out will be 100% perfect every time is beyond me.

 

Quote:And if the dice roll different and one of those storms slams head on, it's catastrophic. I'd rather know too much than not enough.

 

Besides, I like the news coverage, nobody has to watch it, and a dark part of me wants to see something happen to Cantora. Nothing threatening life or limb, maybe just get blown down a street or something.

See, here's my secret desire:

 

The annoying guy who owns and drives the little red mini-tank and screams a lot can often be found in Oklahoma on high-risk tornado days. So can Cantore. My dream is that while Cantore is standing in the road talking about how we're all going to die, Reed Timmer blows past at 100mph (he drives that tank like an idiot, btw) and explodes Cantore. The Great Bald Ego is out of every profession his claws extend into, Timmer's in jail for a long time and the little red tank is off the road for good.
