I think the media have lost the plot nowadays when it comes to the
weather, just wait for the blame culture bit after the event, which
ever way it goes!

Yeah that was interesting going up to the weather station but I just
couldn't believe the hype at the beginning and talking about schools being
closed at radio lancashire HQ was just taking it to the extreme.

Same on North West Tonight, at the end the presenter read out an e-mail
from
a viewer saying how he couldnt believe how over the top tonights show
was
regarding the weather.


Terrible wasn't it Robert. From interviews with Asda employees in
Blackburn,
to even sending a reporter out with a gritter. I liked how Nichola Dixon
said
"I think we are getting a little excited" at the end of it all. However,
great report
on the Lake District mountain weather station and also the fantastic views
of
the Isle of Skye.
