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.
You sound so disappointed the hurricane didn't hit Florida when the forecasters were pointing out all the possibilities for landlubbers and sea going vessels. Sorry you were disappointed.
