[QUOTE="bluehdmc, post: 1510969, member: 18471"] The media just hyped the heck out of this storm. I kept getting updates every two hours from my local "patch" about closures, how the township was prepared, etc., etc. They name winter storms, we got a couple of inches Friday into Saturday, (again not what was predicted) named Iola, and this one was named Juno. The Weather Channel just keeps up the hype, live broadcasts, etc. The rest of the media follows along calling the Gov's office, the State Police, road depts. and local officials. If they are not prepared then they hype investigations, how they weren't prepared. A few years ago Gov Christie was on vacation and the Lt. Gov. was also away and there was a bad snowstorm and they dropped the ball, cars were stranded on highways and the media was all over that. It's a can't win situation. [/QUOTE]
