For those of you not familiar, Pete Delkus is the weatherman on the local ABC affiliate in Dallas.  He's one of those hysterical types.  If he's giving you a forecast and he's got his sleeves rolled up, you better batten down the hatches, because all hell is breaking loose.

We had a little "winter storm" here in Dallas today.  They had been predicting it now for 3 days. First, came the Winter Storm Watches.  Then came the Winter Storm Warnings, a good 8 hours before the weather ever arrived. Schools started closing, businesses closing their doors, it was going to be horrible!!

Was it cold? yeah

Was it annoying? mildly

I woke up this morning expecting to see white covered grasses with wind and snow blinding the windows.  Instead, there was maybe 1/4 inch of snow, with a few little pellets of ice underneath.  What a crock.

Had we been in Michigan, we would've said the storm missed us.

Is this Pete's fault? Well no, but he seems to be the captain of the hysteria parade anytime significant weather is a possibility.
