I really think this Weather Blog is one of the best things to happen lately. It's a fresh breath of sanity in a market where stations appear to try to out-do each other in exaggerating and sensationalizing impending snowfall.
Isn't CT Thongklin kind of redundant? I thought the "CT" was short for Charles Thongklin... eh, just wondering...
Sean,
By the way, speaking of Channel 3, when do the newbies start? I thought they would be at the anchor desk by now.
From this week's print edition of The Reader:
The new anchor team of Carol Wang and Carlo Cecchetto at KMTV (Cox Channel 5) debuts later this month.

Am I the only one who gets nauseous by the cuteness factor on the WOWT weather graphics? Tonight they had a duck making a snowball on their snow forecast. I guess they are determined to win that coveted 3-8 year old demographic.
So who won?
