Response to Vic's News Blog

Vic, you agreed with Peter that your reason for watching the news is the weather forecast. I agree also. You need to plan ahead, weather-wise, especially if you are performing activities outdoors. The weather report is an important resource that we all need in our daily lives. Pilots use weather data to safely navigate through the skies. Ship sailors must know weather data to navigate safely through the waters, etc. On a larger scale, weather forecasting enables the government and media officials to warn residents of hurricane and tornado prone areas to evacuate early and safely before the storm hits. Imagine what it would be like not to have an early warning signal.
