Well weather services do get a hard on for severe weather, and I imagine it's because their viewership skyrockets. I love when a weak hurricane rolls through, and they send out a reporter to point at sticks in puddles.

The National Weather Service doesn't have ratings they have to keep up, they aren't The Weather Channel, so what you said doesn't fit with what I am talking about here.

National Weather Service doesn't have "viewership" it's a federal agency. The Weather Channel is not the National Weather Service.
