Basically the tv weather people continue the drama mainly for job security, i can't blame them at all. The reality is 90% of the time they could wrap up a forecast easily within 2-3 minutes by simply saying..... Same as yesterday & will be same for the rest of the week.
Meanwhile the " traffic " person atleast has kind of job security although on some stations one of the tv anchors typically does the traffic.
Why these tv stations employ so many " meteorologist's " is a mystery, plus what on earth do they do all day ? 99% of them are men.
i'll settle for 1%.
