but it's devolved to the point where i'll have to avoid "stormwatch 2009" when there's 1.5" of rain in l.a. next february.

there are news directors here that send reporter's out to stand next to storm drains for live updates during heavy mists.

it's like getting an urgent update that rollerdoc has posted after a big brown win.

where's mort?
