Given my excitement for hurricane coverage, the following paragraph from a CNN.com article today caught my attention:
At least one man this week steered his Chevy Tahoe against the stream of traffic, toward the wind-whipped coastline and the target of the storm’s fury.
Believe it or not, the person referenced in the story is not Jim Cantore. Upon further reading, though, it becomes apparent that this man, if you can call him that, is no threat to taking Cantore’s title of Hurricane Ass Kicker. Instead, after overreacting to getting caught in a mild rainstorm a few years ago, this guy merely drives to the expected destination of a hurricane’s arrival, sets up cameras, and then flees like a toddler running from the boogey man.
Click the link above to read the full story, which goes into detail about what he tries to capture with his cameras. Afterward, you might find yourself calling the guy “innovative.” I still call him “wimp.”
