Probably because the effect on the big cities is very much up in the air. Most of the models though are showing a storm hitting either SC or NC and then moving north.

Just based on your choice of words here, I think that you very much missed the mark by not becoming a TV weatherman. I think you'd rule at witty anchor banter.

Nothing has formed yet. This thing is predicted to develop, but it isn't a tropical cyclone yet.

niss,

I don't think there's anyone on earth who is taking this as seriously as you are. I just checked all the headlines on Drudge Report and there's nothing about this, so it can't be very important.

Also, I remember what a weather geek I was as a kid in the early-mid 80s. I would watch The Weather Channel incessantly, even though a lot of it was the same crap over and over. What a weird thing for a kid to be interested in.

Tuq,

I did the same as a kid. So did/do a lot of kids, I bet.

I knew a fat girl that loved the weather channel. God I hated her.

It looks like it won't be bad. They led off our local news with the story. I live about where I put the white dot, and they are estimating we'll only get about 0.1" of rain. But it could still change course or strengthen.

They should bypass the regular naming order and go with Hurricane Niss for this one based off of your obsession with the storm.
