What little respect I had for them is now gone. If they were posting on here, their views would be sent beyond the Hurricane Graveyard post haste. Irresponsible, sensationalistic, immature, (add your favorite negative adjective here). Oh, forgot disgusting.




well, i have to comment....i'm not in any way affiliated with any weather forcasting agency whatsoever...but competition is a way of checks & balances. its all good. accuweather is telling (in a passive way, albeit) nhc when their weather products are useless. nhc should take all criticism with a grain of salt, of course -- they are the glue that holds all weather forcasting together. but they should always listen to discerning forecasters. otherwise we have a state-controlled one-way thinking hurricane center.
