Do you think companies like TWC and AccuWeather employ local meteorologists in every city?


I work in the television industry. Just because they work for TWC or accuweather doesn’t mean they’re a better meteorologist than some of those in local markets.

And local Mets can ABSOLUTELTY be a better asset for severe weather because they’re familiar with weather patterns and how storms react to local terrain. Networks will even send some staff to local affiliates during hurricane coverage so they can more accurately relay information to the network.

No doubt, I'm not arguing their skill.

It just isn't reality that the NCAA is relying on local meteorologists for forecasts.
