What was sort of hysterical was that Shep came on to do his crisis central role at Fox. All of his contacts were standing around outside in NYC, and all were probably able to catch each an every snowflake in their vicinity....there were so few.

And then for whatever reason I woke up twice last night and continued to check on it, and Fox was running Shep’s 10 pm’ish broadcast over and over. All hype, danger, curfews, blathering mayors, etc., etc..

Fox would have gained a lot of credibility saying the obvious, that the NYC Blizzard of the Night was a bust.

You hit on one good point there. For a lot of the media, they can only relate to stories like this from a New York City perspective. That means every winter storm that sweeps up the East Coast has to become a New York City event, and every hurricane that strikes Florida or Louisiana has to become the subject of Monday-morning quarterbacking by some @sshole — who doesn’t know anything about meteorology — sitting at a news desk in Manhattan.
