Dr. Frank has a history of being a drama queen in storms. I trust the NHC more then him.
I could not disagree more strongly. He used to run the NHC, and is as good as it gets.
Oh come on...Dr. Frank DOES NOT want people to let down their guard. He's not fudging what he's seeing. He has yrs of experience and the behaver of hurricanes. He wants people to GET REAL at HOW dangerous this hurricane is. Why do you think he came in early today? He's the hurricane specialist...continuing to teach his team. I wish Dan Meador was also forecasting during this hurricane...he's the other one I trust at KHOU, David Paul is improving...but Frank and Meador are the best.
Hmmm. I don't see Dr. Frank as a drama queen at all. Actually, he seems to always go out of his way to be matter of fact about how dangerous these storms can be and to not let your guard down.
