There hasn't been a ton of activity on the weather front as far as Weather Warrior Media (soon to be Weather Warrior Entertainment). Since Hurricane Irene, my focus has been on getting a new vehicle that will allow me more abilities to head into these various severe weather events.

WINTER WEATHER NEWS

While we are moving into the new 2011/2012 Season, there was quite a story last year with record breaking snows in the east, and central US. The situation was rather dangerous for many areas and death was a bit too common of the story last season. But, I think between last season and even the season before has been a wake up call for many people that forgot in the inactive snow seasons years prior. We'll have to see how the 2011/2012 season pans out. Already seeing some indicators for a busy season......more
