"Storm Watch" "Storm Track", "Late Breaking Storm Report" - WTF????

[nini]

It's raining in Los Angeles everyone!!!!! The local news stations are keeping us informed with their STORM reports!!! Doppler 7 tracking is making sure we know exactly where the rain is!!!!


THANK GOD! Now I won't spin out of control on the road if I need to go out :eyes: :eyes: :eyes:

I'm so embarassed to be from here sometimes!

1. Looks like your weathermen are finally about to earn their keep

How do I get a job like that in L.A.?

5. No kidding..

about 15 days of work a year :-)

2. It's like that almost everywhere, now.

Even when the weather is nice, we get commercials from all the local stations reminding us they're the only one with uberdoppler.

3. The end is here!! There's water! Falling from the sky!!!

Bundle up your loved ones and prepare for the end, for it is nigh. We'll tell you the best places to hide tonight at 11!!

4. Californians treat rain like it's 1 foot of snow

People can't drive, can't go out...can't cope

[nini]

6. I actually left early to go home to beat the traffic

There's nothing like the 405 freeway in the rain to justify road rage :evilgrin:

8. Heheh! I rode my bike home from work - left about 4:30 from

downtown Pasadena & rode the 5 miles (uphill!) to our house in Altadena. The rain held off till I was in the driveway, but what the hey, there's dry clothes at home anyway....

But in honesty I did leave work a half-hour early because it looked like I might get wet otherwise.

7. Look out for the lightning...

we had a hit in town...I lost cable and net but not electricity for about 4 hours. A neighbor said it struck a hotel about 8 blocks from here according to her police scanner. It's also dumping 18 inches of snow at higher elevations. If it moves south without losing it's steam, you may have some *fun* after midnight.

9. fun after midnight ??? - I wished !!!

:evilgrin:
