We’re all secretly worried about letting Jim Cantore down again, aren’t we? His last trip to Lincoln, in April, was a bust, though, for the record, that storm DID cancel the Husker spring football game (which according to the Vanderbilt TV News Index that measures American interest in international disasters is comparable in Nebraska to 250,000 Burmese dead in an earthquake). Still, Cantore was heard to exclaim, ‘ere he flew out of sight, "to hell with Lincoln. I’m headed to the south where they do disasters up right.” If this storm doesn’t pan out either, we’ll never get him here again, short of a 50-foot tall Platte River tsunami.
