Jim Cantore stages a spontaneous blustery,powerful wind and rain swept scene in order to create The Hurricane Video of the Century. Just standing out there in the middle of it and not taking cover. He is the new god of wind and rain.
Thank you, thank you! You are absolutely correct, sir- sadly, on all counts:dozens of people have uploaded the original video like Cantore was selflessly putting his life at risk for the public good. I live in NOLA...it really wasn't bad- it was barely a hurricane. The problems Isaac caused were due to dumping more rain on already saturated ground. Cantore is the boy who cried wolf, and it deadens people's appreciation and compassion for "real" storms.
