I've always been afraid of thunderstorms, even though they are rare here. It's the lightning that really scares me!

My heart goes out to Open Eyes and others on the East Coast.

But I didn't like how The Weather Channel didn't cover ANY other weather until Hurricane Irene passed. No local weather, no weather in the rest of the U.S. or WORLD...Stupid network. I didn't watch it for a couple of days, like I usually do each day for LOCAL conditions and the outlook for the week. Weather goes on 24/7 all over the globe, and they say they ARE the WEATHER CHANNEL. I used to have two other weather channels, but either the cable company or network took them away.

Again, not meaning to sound callous to the East Coast people. But the channel acted like a hurricane HAS NEVER occured before at all. It was (and is) newsworthy, but I thought it was "oversaturation".
