Yea, the teases do little but turn me off as a viewer.
They seem to think the public is too stupid to figure out what they're doing.
I also hate when they get you to tune in only to save the big story until about 20 minutes into the newscast and then it's only about a 15 second blurb telling you absolutely nothing.
I find it's best just not to watch the local news except in times like these for the weather.

This tropical storm looks like it will keep us busy for the next week, along with that other storm that is forecasted by the models to form off the coast of Africa. I can't believe that Florida could be hit with another tropical system, this is un-heard of.

Going by your reasoning, that would mean another Cat 5 next year as well.
not reasoning by FAR! I'm in the slow part of my day so I have nothing else to think about right now. Well except for the whole stock up on batteries and flashlights in Atlanta thing. Alas I just found the pattern interesting and thought I'd share. Let make my finding look stupid by making landfall as a Cat II or less (wishcasting here).

>>> The Mayor of new orleans has just asked everyone to leave!
Is that TRUE? I can't imagine it would be anything but voluntary evac and only for those in the most sensitive areas...OK, that would be the entire city, but NO is barely in the cone...
Maybe he just wants some down time...

it is voluntary right now. he said that all the information he has the high would have to break down in a timely manner for the storm to turn more east and he doesn't beleive it will in that time frame. he beleive that conditions will have to be perfect for this to happen and he wants everyone to be safe so thats why he is asking everyone to evc. now. He said it may not hit directly on new orleans but it will be close enough to have a major inpact.
