Wow, I'm surprised to see Marshall and Heather on at this time of day, on a weekend no less.  :blink:

What in the world? :dunno:
It's not all that unusual. They've done the afternoon shift in Storm Alert for past hurricanes. ;)

I'm talking about I've never seen them work on weekends before.

It must've been a good while back because I don't remember.

They did it in 2005 for a few hurricanes. Still, that was because landfall was imminent; I don't think this scenario merits having them on.

If anything, I would have expected them coming on the air this morning instead of in the afternoon, but oh well.

I see back at home in Chicago, there's significant flooding after 7 inches of rain fell due to a stalled out cold front and training storms. It has now become a secondary story on TWC next to Ike; in a way, it's pretty cool seeing my hometown on TWC with all of the red STORM ALERT graphics; indeed, the situation almost merits it. >_<

Here in Bloomington, IL, we're slated to get possibly 6 inches of rain from Ike tomorrow. That's not going to be fun. >_<

Instead of having the precip and temps separate, they present the precip for Sunday, then the temps for Sunday, then the precip for Monday, then the temps for Monday, etc.
