But fear sells and the media has to be more interesting than the next channel.

Here the weather man always makes the worst case weather model headline news. We are going through an atmospheric river. At 11 am it was to deluge from he heavens.

It's 1:11 and it's sprinkling. Seems the system shifted and we are just being brushed...

Oh it gets better! That's not all!

We get snow? It's snow apocalypse!!! We are going to all die and be snowed in...

Then Portland shuts down for an inch of snow and anyone driving on the roads plays bumper cars...
