Freezing weather

The networks are having a field day.

They all seem surprised that we are having freezing temperatures. Every network is giving tips on staying warm - don't forget your hat and gloves. I realize that it is going to be unusually cold tonight, in the low teens and tomorrow the temps should be in the mid 20's. I sympathize with those who have to work outdoors, or those whose heating systems fail, but this is not unusual.

What all the broadcasters seem to forget is that this is January and this is the northeast where traditionally it's cold in January. I think people in general seem to forget that fact.

I guess it's been a slow newsday.
