WW 2007

The media is in a frenzy over the Winter weather that we are currently experiencing here in Atlanta. The first 30 minutes of this morning's news was dominated by stories of the weather: advice on how to drive to drive on ice, school closings, flight cancellations, etc. It's times like this that I'm embarrassed to be a Southerner. I'm sure the rest of the country is laughing at us. The fact that the temperature is above freezing and only expected to rise doesn't seem to come into the picture. The fact that we don't expect any ice, flurries or accumulation of any frozen parcipitation doesn't seem to calm the frenzy. After all, it's Winter Watch 2007!
