Actually Larry the reasons are much more basic. The hurricane affected 90 million people on the East Coast..the Weather channel has to sensationalize the whole thing so they can make themselves look necessary to the world. No wonder Home Depot and Lowes advertise so strongly on TWC..Those places were so busy before the storm it wasn't funny. So it all boils down to MONEY..as usual. Don't forget..a Hurricane is transitory in nature and as you have ointed out...the flooding just keeps going on and on and on. Not diminishing the flooding..but after the first week..it just doesn't make money or the news. Sad isn't it??
