I always find it interesting that people who never eat bread or drink milk rush out to buy those items when a storms looms.

Incorrect use of "nonplussed" in caption. Unperturbed a better choice.

What a hootenanny . . . And Channel 4's Gutner is fulla that baloney his wife went out and loaded up on. . . Might be some truth to tv forecasters being a bit pressed to predict weather as far ahead as possible... but there is also a very obvious strain of drama queen in a lot of them. . . and maybe even a bit or drama king. . . then there are the tv t alking heads like that Della Garda woman on channel 5. . . She'd hype a trio of snowflakes as a headline and then try to make a two sentence story into something earth shattering . . .  So there you have the reasons so many folks go last minute shopping, a good healthy dose of skepticism brought on by the sometimes incredible, and too often just plain wrong tv weather prognosticators. . . and who pays any attention to newspapers any more for weather reports?

I hope the Goobe does a followup on Jamie Wallace to see how she fared.  Food stores were selling oiut yesterday and the gas lines long.  I want to know what she found open and what food was available on Saturday.

And I love the news reporters standing alongside the highways waiting for the first flakes to fall.

I meant "the Globe"

I've always got a kick out of the fellow newscasters who thank the weather forecaster for giving them a "nice day" yesterday.  They had nothing to do with it actually being a nice day.  In what communications course or seminar did they get that directive?       "Gee, Randy, thanks for those three murders in South Boston yesterday."
