Weather Reporting Goes Drama Queen For Ratings---As In 'Catastrophic' Ice Storm Bearing Down On Hotlanta--- To Hook Us---Oh Pleeeeeze!

 HISTORIC,  HISSMORIC...

WEATHER REPORTING HAS BECOME THE NEW REALITY SHOW---ANYTHING FOR  HIGHER RATINGS....like Downton Abbey....The networks got our number and will do anything to try to get us  hooked on the next ice storm, hurricane etc. so we'd better stay tuned.....and maybe stay up all night to keep up with the changeable storm track.  Sure it's nice to know a storm is coming.  However,  ice storms have been around since the beginning of time. It's when weather people call a storm 'historic' we'd better run for the hills....

Yawn...

Other than that,  I have nothing  to say but, turn off the hype-TV, get a good book, have a glass of red wine.  It's all going to be OK. It's mostly for  people have who have nothing else going on in their lives and need a major adrenaline rush...from Weather TV.

 Again,  Yawn....
