Thread: Atl

I've watched CNN most of the day while reloading. Boy, there has been a lot of finger pointing on who didn't do what in the ATL area. I like the way CNN pulls tapes up to show who didn't do their job right.
I want my Weather Channel back.

We a weather guy here gave a forecast and said there would be little or no precip well it dropped about 15 in. overnight, next the same guy was doing the weather forecast and a disgruntled viewer came on the set and decked Dave Brown knocked him out.

Hahaha

CNN report about noon monday, the guy is on the street with trolly rail behind him. Says most of the storm will pass to the south of ATL. But ATL will get 1 to 2 inches that can shut the city down. I've seen the tape some 6 times today. The mayor came on today saying, You keep showing pictures of the interstate system. That isn't my job, look at city streets, they are in good shape.
I talked to my step-granddaughter today, Once I got off the interstate yesterday I didn't have any problems getting home.

You sure that weren't a wrestler, he did bout as good a job announcing wrestling matches as he did weather reports?

Two inches of snow and ice is about as rare as a BCS championship to you guys.

My son is a director at Kennesaw state university. Decision was made to close school at 11:00AM. 10,000 kids hit the streets plus all the banks and businesses closed at the same time. Can you imagine all the pile-ups at intersections? He parked his truck in a Kroger lot and walked home only to receive a call from his wife who was stuck in traffic about 2 miles from home. He walked to where she was, pushed autos around enough to get her in a parking lot then the walked back home together. He e-mailed me photos of the mess. It was awsome.
