I see a rabbit. I see devastation.

I certainly don't mean to make light of the areas hit by tornados this spring. While there have been few deaths, the destruction has been immense. Even living through a tornado there's great loss. It's certainly been a strange year thus far. Of course, I'm waiting for the alarmists to come out and blame the tornados on global warming.

Memorial Day was one of those weird days. It felt like being inside in the winter and suddenly opening the window on a cold day. It dropped what . . . 20 degrees in a matter of minutes? My sister in Arizona reported that it was 110 one moment and 55 the next. Their shift was due to the tornados that struck to the north.

Anyway, I took the picture of the clouds when the weather shifted. You can see the different hues in the clouds. What you don't see, obviously, is how much and how fast the clouds were billowing. It was quite remarkable . . . and beautiful.

We know it's snowing!

I came home from work early today because of the snow. I travel from Milwaukee to West Bend so in weather like this it's not only hazardous but lengthy. Sometimes taking over an hour to get home.

Anyway, I shoveled first thing then sat down to dry off and warm up. I turned on the TV to see what was on. Good thing we have cable. I can't speak for all the local stations but channel 4 was all snow all the time.

All snow all the time.

All day.

Once you see it's snowing . . . once you're told it's going to snow a lot, that conditions are bad, and that there are cancellations, what more is there?

Hey, let's look at the fuzzy and wet traffic cams to see the slow traffic we just told you about! Over and over and over and over again. Look, 10 minutes later and it's still snowing and the traffic is still moving slowly! Now let's update you on the storm we just told you about. AFter that, we'll go to the crappy traffic cams and have a look at the slow moving traffic again. It's moving slow because . . . it's snowing out!

Over and over and over and over and over . . .

You can't simply give us a 60 second update every 30 minutes? A scroll at the bottom of the screen?

Stupid. I can't stand local news on TV anymore. They lost me. This is one reason why.

At least TMJ4 didn't recommend going to Chucky Cheese with the kids today.
