Waiting

Here we are, 10:30PM and waiting for the 11PM advisoy on Katrina. I am watching several monitors and newscasts for anything I do not catch from this chair.

While waiting for the Hurricane Warning (let's see if I can get this one right:) ) media here has flip-flopped since this morning at 5:30am when I woke up. Most mets this morning were saying watch it, do not panic, do not worry. Granted it was not a time for either but I think a more proactive statement would have been the better choice. This was pretty much across the board from the Miami stations I was watching.

Of course as the day progressed there was more and more coverage. Since the Tropical Storm Watch was upgraded to a Warning every station has shifted gears and at least 75% of their time is about Katrina.
