The weather fear porn channel is so far removed from what it was just a few years ago. Hyping any weather event and drawing broad conclusions over things that have been happening for thousands of years.
Their copious segments on preparation and massive destruction are sitting in the edit room, unused. Don't worry they said, hurricane season is just peaking and there's still hope for a CAT 5!!
I, for one, love hurricanes. The fact is they are the life blood of many of the driest parts of the states, especially in Texas where all the rivers run into the Gulf of Mexico and there is not a natural lake on the surface. The land of 10,000 springs is in desperate need a few decades of tropical rains... not all at once, but nature is going to do what nature wants to do.
