NHC Issues Blustery Weather Coverage Alert for Walton County

The National Hurricane Center has issued a Blustery Weather Coverage Alert for Walton and surrounding counties effective at 10:00 local time today.

A Blustery Weather Coverage Alert means that conditions are favorable for over dramatized, hyped, and ridiculously misleading TV news coverage of weather to affect the warned area within the next 24 hours.

The warning was issued due to the development of an off-shore quasi sub-tropical barely non existent weather entity labeled TD0.005 by the National Hurricane Center.

?Well, it?s really just a couple clouds that may or may not drift on shore and rain a little bit?, said NHC spokesperson Bill Wheeler, ?But the real danger here is folks being run over by an overly excited van full of Weather Channel News Reporters rushing to get to the beach. So we felt it was prudent to issue this warning in the face of this potential danger to the public?; Wheeler went on to explain.

The Weather Channel crew set up shop in south Walton this week to film segments for their live coverage of TD0.005- quasi sub-tropical, barely non existent weather entity, and brought along a piece of new equipment.

?In our quest to bring you the best in Weather News coverage, the Weather Channel is proud to have our new Cat5Camera with us to help bring the drama of weather to American TV viewers?, said Jim Cantore.

The camera features a large wind turbine and water spray so as to ensure that each Weather Channel Report will be full of reporters clutching their hats and screaming through the gale force wind to bring the best in over dramatized, hyped, and ridiculously misleading news coverage.

Cantore went on to add; ?Now, even the most insignificant weather event can be made to look like a Category 5 hurricane. Ratings are going to go through the roof!?
