Re: NHC Track

The only thing that really stuck out was the fact as I flipped to the TV station in question, I saw a huge graphic stating in large letters "Saturday 140+ MPH winds"

Not everyone is as savvy as members of this board, and I know several people who will construe that as "OMG that will definetly happen now! It's all over"

My opinion aside I agree with you, more coverage is better. I just think the stations in this market need to state that there is room for error more clearly and concisely, IMO. Maybe it's an overcorrection for the local stations being late about Charley.

That's just my two cents. I'm definetly not a Meteorologist, but i'm studying to be one.

I'm hoping for the ever decreasing possibilty of the hook for this one.
