Weather reporters – heroes, every one…….

Let us give thanks to those intrepid folks who brought us live coverage of Tropical Storm Fay and are, even now, steeling their nerves to brave the elements again for  Hurricane Hanna (LIVE!). Reporting the weather during hurricane season is the macho alternative to war reporting, for hacks who cannot be away from home for too long (“I’d love to report from Lashkar Gar, but who’d feed my pets…?”)

This piece in the Post has it about right. I love anything with Geraldo Rivera in it. He hasn’t yet captured Bin Laden, but by God, he will make up for it with a rainy day in Florida.

Cock jockey……

By the way, six ( or so) boats sank in the NAS Jax Marina, during Fay. Ouch.
