An almost unprecedented storm is affecting a huge swath of the contiguous United States, leaving millions without power and local TV affiliates are offering stern warnings to stay off roadways by sending out their Road Warriors into conditions people should not be driving in. What a great idea!

All the Chicago stations send reporters and cameras all over the city and Northwest IN doing the same thing. One station sends a car, reporter, and camera out to drive around showing us why we should not be driving around doing what they are doing. It’s really stupid and serves no purpose at all.

But what about global warming?
I know, I know, global warming doesn't really mean anything about actually getting warmer- as in the temperature actually goes up, it has to do with any number of random weather patterns which may be getting hotter or colder or just may stay the same. That's all global warming. And don't you dare question the gurus. They can produce any number of models to cover any random weather pattern. That's just the glory of IPCC modeling which can be modified to cover any scenario you can dream up.
Doofus! Now shut up and obey!
And it's 9 degrees in Virginia. You know it's true. Or at least you should if you know what's good for you.

Hmm.
I suppose if the weather was really shitty and HOT, the news stations would be sending people out to drive in THAT weather.

It’s best when they ride along in a plow. I always secretly wanted to be a plow driver.

Down here they do it in hurricanes. OK, I had to laugh out loud at that first one! Didn't Dan Rather get his start doing that in a hurricane in Galveston?
