It must have been during the 1st hour, as Rokker was making fun of it during the :30 weather.
[I am Central time. Maybe someone Mountain or Pacific could capture it. I missed capped it. Local usually runs the NY 7 am as our (central) 7 am, so we are actually delayed a hour.]
Speaking of Rokker, I saw him on FoxNews one morning a couple of years ago. He made it should as if he was going to be the new weather person on FoxNews. A couple of days later he was back on Today, so I guess they renewed the contract talks and bumped up his salary. This morning was the first time I'd seen him in a while; he has managed to lose allot of weight and keep it off. Good for him.
Whoops. Sorry for the lack of formatting. Here's a link to the story about Al Roker's stomach surgery.
