LOL! One local station is a little misinformed....

See if you like this story.....

I just turned the local weather on, and they were mention "a heavy pocket of heavy rain" for much of our viewing area (Northern/Central Lower Michigan). They didn't even seem to mention a front or low pressure system!

But then came the crowning moment. They then said that Arlene was now over OHIO. Um, they need to look at a radar over the past few days. The rains in Michigan are coming from none other than ARLENE! And the center is definitely over Michigan.

BTW, I am not in Grand Rapids right now....I am home for the summer. We've had a few sprinkles in my area and it's very cloudy, but nothing major.

Oh, one more addition! I looked a national radar. There are some scattered showers and maybe some thunderstorms over Ohio, that might be sorta leftovers from Arlene. But the main rains from Arlene are ALL over Michigan.

I don't think its that funny. News media is stupid, nothing new.

[Andrew92]

OK, whether you think it's funny or not, I still had to share that. Some media.....

That's wild I told my Dad in Clare, Michigan yesterday that what was left of Arlene was coming right for them.

[Andrew92]

Clare has nearly an inch of rain, and nearby Mount Pleasant, where Central Michigan University is, has well over an inch.

And where I am, which is for the summer a town called Charlevoix, it's just cloudy.

Well, we all knew Arlene would still be doing some small damage in the North. Good job to local stations...
