But wait, there's more! Why does the "Weather Channel"  make such good predictions on Big Storms? They just don't cover you're local area, which is the bad part.

Oh, they're no better either.  There was a storm last year that they majorly whiffed on...the same one the locals whiffed on as well.  In fact, The Weather Channel issued what may be one of the longest non-apologies on record: https://weather.com/storms/winter/news/winter-storm-stella-northeast-bust-march-2017/ .  You'd have to find all the forecasts and stories just before the storm didn't hit as expected to see how much hype this storm got.
In the old days of the Weather Channel; if Jim Cantore was broadcasting in your neighborhood, your area was screwed weather-wise.  :-D
Jim cantore? He's the best we got, he has clips of the rare "Thunder snow"  & he's pretty cool to watch, he always got the Tri-State area thru the worst storms.
