I don't know but does this mean that it brings the Aljazeera English Weather complement to four? In addition to Richard Angwin, Everton Fox and Steff Gaulter that is.

LOL I was going to put it up too. You beat me. It was the funniest thing when WSB was doing storm coverage. They tried to pummel their competition in Atlanta. Well they arent #1 for nothing. They had they largest team out covering the storm. But that graphic was hilarious.

Nasty little weather fight is brewing. The Weather Channel has been dropped in favour or upstart Accuweather in a few markets. Accuweather blasted the National Weather Service for failing to issue a warning during the recent Oklahoma City/ Moore tornado. But what is funny they criticised NWS but their new channel failed to provide and breaking coverage! Also whilst The Weather Channel was in live rolling coverage of the tornadoes, Accuweather showed hippos and recorded forecasts.
How can you throw around accusations when you have glaring failings.....Stones/Glasshouses...

Believe me, if you lived in Tornado Alley, you'd also be obsessed with the weather!

A necessary obsession. Its just interesting that Accuweather is trying to pull a "FoxNews" but doesnt have chops to back it up. Especially since they are advocating get rid of the National Weather Service. Really? The Weather Channel blew them outta the water completely. Breaking Weather is when they shine. They have far more resources and experience. Well see how this turns out.
