Could you imagine poor Jim Cantore having to be holed up in a deserted town, in a pitch black hotel for several days all alone with her during Katrina? Poor schmuck. No football on TV, no internet, no surfing at the beach...nothing to do but wait for the National Guard to arrive...
Actually, last time he was holed up in a armed forces retirement home. This time, because he was in a rush to get to Galveston Bay (can't remember the town, but it's on the mainland between Galveston and Houston), he's stuck in Houston, so he'll get electricity back quickly.
