Just about any member here could have drawn that plate of spaghetti. You know it's true. They've got the damn thing going everywhere. Anyone can predict that! Those predictions are next to useless, and this is when they have tons of historical data to feed onto the computers! Laughable!

I love when local weathermen are tracking a storm and they say "our computer models don't agree." Is that so? Any idea why that might be, Mr. Wizard?

Ridiculous! Useless! Thirty-seven supercomputers running 24/7 and you still don't know jack shit.

Mother Earth shall guide that storm on a whim and you just have to prepare for the worst if you're anywhere near that pasta on the screen.

I can't answer any more questions as to where this thing may be going than the man in the moon. I say, stop panicking it looks to be on a more northward track....Her- But, but, what if??? PLEASE STOP!!

Just have a plan, get some supplies, be prepared as much as the worst case scenario and thats it! Man, how many years have we been doing this, umm like over sixty now living south of Miami, thats a lot of hurricanes and tropical storms!!

Dramatic predictions equals panicked people equals more viewers, who are viewing for longer intervals equals increased ratings equals $$$$.
