This picture from a Weather Channel broadcast was sent around on Twitter yesterday and forwarded to me from my friend Hugh. We both used to work there before they came up with the goofy idea to name Winter Storms. NOAA and the National Weather Service does not name winter storms.
In this case, the on-camera meteorologist was talking about what they called "Winter Storm Janus."
Of course, from the camera angle and the place the guy was standing, it gives the storm a different meaning - and to some it really is a pain in that place. :)
Let this be a lesson to them not to name winter storms. They shouldn't fool with mother nature. :)

The importance of camera blocking. Sorry, @TWCAlexWallace. This kind of Tom Foolery never happened on my watch. pic.twitter.com/N6AzlTrGN5
