On the 16th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, some forecasters said Hurricane Ida would be as intense as last year’s Laura and the Last Island Hurricane of 1856. Both were among the strongest storms on record to make landfall in Louisana.
According to CNN, about half a million people were without power in the region.
On Saturday, state and federal officials worked to get evacuation orders signed and emergency declarations in order. Sporting events and casinos were closed or postponed for the weekend. Mississippi schools were announced closed for Monday.

That is why they are called “fake news”.

Here is a suggestion for Weather Channel reporters —- the grab a light pole horizontal layout stunt with rain and wind machines. That is a sure bet Emmy Award winner.

Cantore is the biggest phony in weather today. He has been doing this kind of nonsense for as long as I remember. Love watching these Weather Channel rummies get trolled.
Gave up on that channel years ago, when they upped their commercials to about 50 minutes per hour.

I guess they are trying to keep their ratings up by selling fear?

In recent years TWC has really jumped the shark with their weather coverage. They over hype weather events and attempt to scare people into tuning in. It is embarrassing and these clips are just a reminder that, "The most trusted name in weather" is really just fake news. Their climate change segments are unwatchable.

They can't convince people that the climate change industry is needed unless they also convince everyone that the world's climate is disintegrating. And that requires faked weather reports.

I was in Baton Rouge and left Saturday night to escape the storm. The local radio news stations were telling listeners to NOT go to the Weather Channel to get their information.

Butt this is the worst storm in 170 years! The media says so it must be true (/s).
Next time one of these clowns tries to simulate high winds, they need someone to throw 'flying debris' at them. Can't have high winds without flying debris.

The weather channel is a joke. They had about fourteen people positioned around the region where the hurricane was to land so they could take video of these people in high wind and heavy rain with stuff blowing around. Apparently, the hurricane pretty much missed them all. There was video of buildings being ripped apart, but not where any of the so called reporters were. One shot of a reporter did have some downed branches from a tree, but that was about it. The channel kept going to radar to show the areas with the highest wind gusts and heavy rain, but even when the reporter was in such an area, it didn't look much different than your everyday thunderstorm. Jim Cantore twenty years ago became famous for standing out in really bad weather events. So now, every weather person has to do the same thing for dramatic effect. Even if they have to make it up.

In addition to Cantore, the other goofball is Stephanie Abrams (“All right!?”)
She bulldozes other reporters out of the prime weather zones. But this time she got punked. The storm missed her.
Also, TWC started trying to up the ante a few years ago when they started naming winter storms and other weather “events.”
Anything to keep the edge and spread fear.
(Same with climate change)

There was another cut where the fake weatherman battling the elements was signing off with the, 'back to you Natasha' part and some overweight middle age guy did a cartwheel behind him. It was along Canal Street with the power truck in the background.

Honestly, I just want to know, where is Shephard Smith -- I miss his drama -- and wailing and gnashing of teeth that there are going to be 10s of thousands of dead people in New Orleans.

Can't even trust our weather reporters.
Glad to see there was a news report on the Weather Channel's response to this. Just proves that their mea culpa was worthless drama as well.

Cantore is the Humphry Bogart of the Weather Channel. The drama queen, Cantore, of fake weather news always giving an Oscar performance. I quit watching the silly Weather Channel years ago or trusting them when the slant on weather conditions were told to be caused by 'global warming'.
This morning a female reporter said with all the frequency and strength of hurricanes it was caused by 'climate change'.
Everything else is fake news so why not weather reports.

Notice they dress in oversized clothing so it will flap in the wind.
I look forward to the day when one of these clowns is decapitated live on camera by a flying piece of roofing tin or a road sign.

I stopped watching TWC years ago because it was hype and fake news. I stopped watching the Food Channel because everything was dumbed down and turned into a mindless game show. I'll leave those channels for imbeciles to watch.

Obviously the people in the background are in the eye of the storm, the reporter is in the eye wall.

Relatives in southern Mississippi are out of power, a couple of big branches down. A tree down at another relative's house near them, hit nothing but the ground. They'll be back in business in a day or so.
They say nowhere near as bad as Katrina.
