1) That would be a really pointless email.

2) It probably wouldn't make Chris Hoitsma happy.

3) It probably wouldn't be answered until Tuesday anyway.

I disagree with that.

Anyway, they just pulled out the deployment map to show where all six of their OCMs/reporters are stationed. I wonder if we'll see Storm Alert for EE tonight. (which I won't be home for)

Why? They're supposed to be in Storm Alert.

They were in Storm Alert just for a weak Ernesto, yet they aren't in for a very strong Gustav? TWC never ceases to amaze me. :rolleyes:

I've heard that Jim Cantore and Jeff Morrow were reporting on NBC Nightly News in another thread, so apparently that is why there are not many reporters stationed live for the Weather Channel; I guess if there is one thing I can unfortunately count on, it's the Weather Channel becoming worse and worse and going more mainstream.

Now the podium is back to yellow again, just as it was at this time last hour.

I expect that Gustav will make landfall around 1:00 PM tomorrow.

If there's a Storm Alert mode at all, perhaps during Evening Edition West Coast.

I would recommend the first option.
