Re: Beaner's and Rattie's Weather Porn Thread
Pretty sure I've related this story before, but connected to RP's comment above, when we were living in NC there was a hurricane threat and all the local affiliates sent their weather dorks to the coast. At the last second, the storm turned back east to the ocean. And the look on the faces of the news people was true disappointment. Impossible to mistake for anything else despite their words of relief that damage was minimal.

Universal Hub, the Boston-area blog aggregate, makes light of this every time there's a storm: http://www.universalhub.com/french-toast. They reported that the Weather Channel "party tent" has been set up on the Cape for 2 days already.Dr. Medulla wrote:Pretty sure I've related this story before, but connected to RP's comment above, when we were living in NC there was a hurricane threat and all the local affiliates sent their weather dorks to the coast.

Los Angeles hit 113 degrees on Monday making it their hottest temperature ever recorded since records began in 1877.

If you lived in LA, your facebook would be a constant weather report.

a) you think you have weather
b) you think it's different anywhere else. Every fucking winter in Chicago it's about 45 people doing different variations on "BRRRRRRR!"

that's why it's notable, cuz how many degrees it is usually isn't an issue over here.Wolter wrote:I think it's cute thattepista wrote:If you lived in LA, your facebook would be a constant weather report.

Yes, but the records only go back to 1876 when the Hall of Records mysteriously melted.tepista wrote:Los Angeles hit 113 degrees on Monday making it their hottest temperature ever recorded since records began in 1877.

I changed it. When Homer told Lisa there's never been a hurricane in Springfield, she said the records only go back to 1978 when the Hall of Records was mysteriously blown away.Dr. Medulla wrote:Simpsons line?

Not really weather-y, but a shot from Greenland.

Lame storm. I give it a two stars out of five.

CNN referred to it as Burricane. Clever. For about five minutes.
