I go on vacation, and come back to a Tropical Storm. That’s the way it works in news. If you haven’t figured it out by now, I’m a news junkie. I travel to other cities, and turn on their newscasts to see what they’re like. And that’s what happened this weekend. I was in D.C. visiting friends, and the weather guy casually mentioned Tropical Storm Noel in one sentence of the forecast. Why do they care about a storm, when they’ve got freeze warnings? But of course, this Miami girl perked up… and I knew what Monday’s lead was, before it even got here.
Storms that hit the caribbean are extremely relevant to our extremely diverse population… so we’re going to continue to keep an eye on the storm as it makes it way. Looks like it’s going to be a wet Halloween.
But my favorite story of the day– after all the weather coverage– has to be homeboy Mike Lowell being named World Series MVP. He was a Marlins and South Florida favorite… and even though he’s in BeanTown now… his family, friends, and Miami fans are still rooting for him. Hank Tester interviewed his dad and people at his high school… just an all around feel good story.
We’ll be back tomorrow… with more news… see ya then.
