You should have clocked him with a really big map. Rolled up, for maximum whapping ability.

If a healthy person can walk 4 miles an hour (for a limited amount of time before legs falling off), and if a weather person can successfully predict the course of the storm (he/she can't), then what's the safe distance, 100 miles? That's a lot of hours of walking. 25 hours, in fact, which, maybe the warnings were more than a day before the actual impact, but probably not much more than a day.

It is literally impossible to out-walk the weather, even with advance notice.

You lie! I saw that we-all-freeze movie!

This one looks like pick-up sticks.

A casino barge docked a little bit further inland than usual...

I saw that we-all-freeze movie!

Frost is totally weather!

ION: Gambling Monkeys Compelled by Winner's High

When given a choice between steady rewards and the chance for more, monkeys will gamble, a new study found.

And they'll keep taking risks as the stakes rise and dry spells get longer.

More press conference fun.

Senator Vitter: New Orleans will "absolutely" be rebuilt.

Nothing against the many, many people who have lost everything in NOLA, but a certain scene from Holy Grail keeps coming to mind.

But they weren't walking. They were running. And there was a door to stop the weather once they reached it.

And then, and then, they slammed the door in its face!

Frost is totally weather!

But it's a whole different weather vibe than a hurricane. It's a different temperature and everything.
