youre being a little harsh on the weatherman. the weatherman is only as good as the technology he has. :)

So why bother to dedicate 15 minutes to weather on every local TV broadcast and give high school sports a minute (or less)?

Anybody else sick of seeing them dispatch 10 reporters to every street to show there's snow on the ground. "Stay off the streets" they say ... but why are they out there then?
Sorry for the rant.

weatherpeople on tv are a different breed. They're crazy enough to be outside holding on to a pole during a hurricane with 100+mph winds, not realizing one piece of blowing debris could kill them. I don't pay to much to them unless i want to be entertained. I have my own weather station that tells me all I need to know

I agree that the dummies that get on the roads and stand on the side of the roads, with little to no headgear to show the ones watching that the "weather event" is occurring, make me wonder if they're on something. Charlotte stations are the worst!

A couple years ago when we played SWO in the title game it was raining! At the half their coach was being interviewed and he said “ we can’t use weather as an excuse it’s raining on their side of the field too” he was awesome
