Her thermostats indicate the temperature is very COLD.

Beautiful, dumb and mute, so far so good....

Off topic, but that reminds me of a bit of doggerel I heard years ago...

At last I've met the perfect girl
Like none I've known before,
She's deaf and dumb and over sexed
And owns a liquor store!

And now I go to accuweather.com for all my needs.

I don't mind Storm Stories, but now that The Weather Channel has gone apocalyptic..with Climate Code, and It Could happen Tomorrow with their "what if/the sky is falling" junk, I tune into Weather Plus for my forecast news.

People who turn on the Weather Channel want to know what the weather is, and what it will be during the week.

"Her thermostats indicate the temperature is very COLD."

Very funny!! But aren't they supposed to be the same size? Maybe the one on the left is for REALLY COLD temps?

Heather Tesch is the only reason to watch TWC!

"We aim to help our viewers better understand why scientists are so concerned about climate change — and then to decide for themselves what they want to do about it."

Telling..not that the scientists get to decide for themselves whether or not global warming exists, but to decide for themselves what they want to do about it..seems to me she's already decided it does exist and anyone who disagrees is a lunatic not worth of being accredited..

"If a meteorologist has an AMS Seal of Approval, which is used to confer legitimacy to TV meteorologists, then meteorologists have a responsibility to truly educate themselves on the science of global warming," Cullen wrote in the blog.

It seems Ms. Cullen should spend more time learning about the (lack of) science of Global WarmingTM.

It's amazing to me just how predictable liberals are. Once again, we see the liberal habit of transference.

When their own credibility is so severely lacking, the Leftist will reflexively strive to demean the credibility or silence the voice of his critics.

I hate to see the Weather Channel get caught up in politics. They provide a needed news service, and like my beliefs about news services, it should not be biases. They have enough to talk about by presenting the facts while staying away from a political agenda.

precisely, I don't want hear this idiots psudoscientific babble just the weather

I've been looking for another picture similar to that, but no luck. I never watch TWC anyway.

The first pix of Cullen is obviously one taken by Weather Channel photogs AFTER the beauty consultants have re-made all of the on-camera female meteorologists. The pix of Cullen with the blue border is shockingly similar to Hilary Clintoon. This picture is probably most closely aligned with Cullen's true personality. Yuck.

Cullen said she and The Weather Channel don't have a political position on global warming. "Our goal at The Weather Channel has always been to keep people out of harm's way. Whether it's a land-falling hurricane or global warming,"

It looks like GW will soon hit the critical mass necessary to become a genuine "Big Lie". A lie so big, and told so many times, that if you deny it you are the one who is wrong.

The Weather Channel is shameless, claiming that they "don't have a political position". GW is all about politics. There can be no "keeping people from harms way" regarding global warming hypothesis except via politics.

Shameless liars.

Buh bye Weather Channel.

I haven't had TV since '97. I've never needed the weather channel. If I want to know what the weather is going to be like, I just hit one of hundreds of sources on the internet. I need no sensationalizing. If I want cool disaster video, I go to limewire or Youtube.

GLOBAL WARMING QUIZ

Global warming is caused by

1. The Sun

2. Hot air from Al Gore

3. Overheated talking heads at the Weather Channel

4. Junk science

5. All of the above

She deserves all the heat we can generate over this noxious propaganda. Seriously, what exactly does Meteorology have to do with recyclables or hydrogen cars?? Do meteorologists actually know anything about those issues??? NNNOOOOOO!!!! They read and forecast WEATHER!! If those things turn INTO weather, then we can call on a freaking meteorologist. Until that conclusively happens, like the weather bimbos keep to the 7 day forecasts.

But if you haven't spent a few minutes reading the responses to her 'blog' (also known as a diatribe), do so. Its very amusing how one-sided the responses are.

She was at CNN the last time I heard. However, I think she is gone now. Don't know where she is now.

She really stumbled on this one.

She makes an argument based on competence in physics, which meteorologists should have. They are, to varying degrees of sophistication, solving a physics problem - forecasting the evolution of a rotating fluid into the future.

Likewise, the rotation of hurricanes is dictated by physics.

However, the issue of global warming is not primarily an a physics problem, but a systems problem. There is a basic physical principle at its center, but the atmosphere isn't governed by a single physical principle, especially at longer time scales, but rather by the nonlinear interaction of many principles.

How this interaction works is not well understood, not nearly as well as physics, and there is plenty of room for legitimate disagreement on this issue among competent scientists.

Anyone that believes in global warming is an expert. A degree in History is sufficient for expert status if you are pro-warming.
