SELES Reged: 03/15/03 Posts: 1826 Re: this years outlook       04/02/08 07:25 PM Edit   Reply   Quote   I live in a Hurricane targeted area...Charleston, SC And these self fulfilling Hurricane Predictions are just that... While perhaps based on something, my experience has been to act/react with good data later... I am just genuinely disappointed in that the Forecasters and Experts have given the glamorization to Meterologists and Weather Forecasters in these areas in an unobvious way to specifically encourage heightened anticipation of activity, but not danger. EX: put on a raincoat, talk loud while trying to sway in 30-40 mph winds during nighttime and talk about conditions that are 'supposed to be'...glamorization and over dramatization that is not intended, BUT can scare the hell out of some people. This is all about TV ratings/viewing audiences and NOT danger. Shame on them for scaring the public! Ric Post Extras
