COMMENTS: Hurricane Season Needs non-Tropical Assist
This has been a wimpy hurricane season, normally a headliner in the fall's news agenda. In the Atlantic alphabet, only Bill, Claudette and Danny have been deemed worthy of attention. Hurricane Ida seemed like a contender when she caused mudslides in El Salvador killing scores, but then she faded into a tropical storm over the Gulf of Mexico then a mere depression over Florida. Lo and behold! The remains of Ida joined forces with an Atlantic nor'easter and started drenching the mid-Atlantic with high waves and heavy rains. NBC's cable news sibling at the Weather Channel provided meteorology from Mike Seidel. CBS assigned Jim Axelrod to a storm watch on the Jersey Shore. ABC had David Kerley at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay in Virginia.
