It's all an attempt at fear for the sake of ratings."Tune in at 10 to find out about the possibility of a DEADLY snowstorm coming our way this week- Will it hit us hard? You NEED to stay tuned to find out all the details of this major, major winter storm". I've heard it all before. It's all just to worry people into tuning in, to get their ratings up. I heard a ratings pitch just like that on our local forecast last night- checked a weather website, no snow expected this week at all. Sunny skies.

It was not extremely uncommon then. The snow cover in the Midwest is heavier than it has been in recent years, but not really, really heavy. Here they talk about "bitter cold" and the temperatures are in the mid- to upper 30s. Crazy. http://www.weather.com/weather/tenday/Indianapolis+IN+USIN0305:1:US In 1982, it got down to -21 degrees at the Indianapolis Airport. http://www.crh.noaa.gov/ind/extreme_retrieve.php What are these crazy people moaning about. I remember shoveling deep snow all winter some years in the Midwest.
