Well, when the power lines start falling from ice and tumbling branches, when the lights go out and cold seeps in, when you envision pipes bursting in walls and ceilings and crawl spaces and the nightmare of year’s supply of aged Angus spoiling rouses you to action you crawl into the dark living room, find the crank radio and fire it up. “More snow on the way. High winds expected. Freezing rain to follow.”

Some excited announcer will add that I&M reports power outages across the entire Midwest due to the storm and predicts three to five days before crews will get the last customer on line. Estimates range from $15 to $30 million in damage. Crews, he adds, are being called in from areas not effected by the storm, but they may not arrive for two or three days, due to distance, the size of the storm and impassable roads.

I just finished a nearly hour long chase with the crew from Discovery.com’s Storm Chasers. I’d call this an exclusive, but since WANE was in the hunt I suppose I can’t. :)

shoup weather boner

Greg Shoup gave me a heads up today that WANE has a new weather blog, which will have content from all four weather people. If you’re not happy with the speed that WANE.com loads, as I am, you’ll be surprised at how fast their blog loads. It’s built using WordPress and loads quickly.

I’ve added a link under “Old Media.”

Here’s the map at just before 7:00 tonight. I just got back from th north side of town. It’s a bit slippery out, and there’s a bit of freezing sleet is coming down.

Just take it slow and keep plenty of room between you and the vehicle in front of you. That is, unless you’re a the friggin idiot that passed me a few moments ago.

Times disses Al film as convenient stretch of truth
By Herald staff
Tuesday, March 13, 2007 – Updated: 01:37 AM EST

http://news.bostonherald.com/national/view.bg?articleid=188169The New York Times [NYT] fires a shot today at Al Gore and his Academy Award-winning global warming film, “An Inconvenient Truth,” saying it involves “hype” and shoddy science. 

“Hollywood has a thing for Al Gore and his three-alarm film . . . So do many environmentalists, who praise him as a visionary, and many scientists, who laud him for raising public awareness,” the Times reports. “But part of his scientific audience is uneasy . . . these scientists argue that some of Mr. Gore’s central points are exaggerated and erroneous.”

Wow, the New York Times says so?

 Now ain’t that a bitch?
