That's overstating it a bit, it's really just a song. But overstating is kind of a theme here, so what the heck. This was sent to me to and written by blogger Ian Doescher. It's a song about the FIRST ALERT STORM TEAM and how our weather promotions scare people. Some times. Hopefully not too much. Well maybe just a little. Just kidding, we're here to inform and re-assure. Give a listen, it's pretty funny!

What do you think? Sounds very B-52s to me. Well done Ian, the newsroom folks were rolling over this. Not sure about the promotions department.
