Eye of the Storm?


FROM WHAT LOOKS LIKE Los Feliz Blvd. above the 5, this ABC 7 reporter gives the wet details of last night's on-and-off rain. Being from a land-locked state in the middle of the country - where "winter storm" means you die from 5 minutes of wind-chill exposure - I still get a kick out of the histrionic TV coverage of LA's "heavy showers."

(I say that now, of course, but heaven forbid the Griffith Park hillsides start sliding into my neighborhood.)

I love that the "reporter" went on location approximately 5 minutes from KABC's station. Really in the elements, channel 7! Putting your cold neck on the line.

And now with Doppler radar, every yellow/red weather "cell" portends the return of the Biblical Great Flood! How did we ever survive the rain before??
