WEWS/5's "Super Surprise"?
Cleveland ABC affiliate WEWS/5 is promising to announce a "Super Surprise" during tonight's broadcast of Super Bowl XL (40, for us non-Romans).
What is it? Well, we figure they're already unveiling it a little during the pre-game show. The station's been occasionally running a brief graphic titled "Power of 5", which apparently refers to a new doppler radar system of some sort...
They'll put all this time and money into a new radar and it won't improve anything. If they want a better forecast, all they have to do is actually hire someone with a meteorology degree! Jeff Mackel = Bachelor of Arts in broadcast communications. Mark Johnson = Bachelors Degree in Telecommunications. Susanne Horgan = some mystery degree from Indiana. Mike Stone = Communications. Do you really want to trust these people? I'll stick to the ones with the real education like Bernier and Tanchak.
