Lawd, it’s summer in the Deep South. All I hear from BR local weather is heat warnings etc. They seem to get excited about the heat advisories.

There is no doubt in my mind those from places like Minnesota call us a bunch of losers when they see "Hard freeze warning" around here when the temps are going to drop to like 28 degrees for an hour.

They'll go the month of January and not see a temperature above 20.

When they figured out that the white woman Facebook crowd loves to work themselves into a righteous frenzy showing each other how concerned they are to one another.

They can just slap that graphic onto the screen May 1 and call it a day until September.

Only heat advisory he should issue is when his wife is at the beach in a bikini.

You might be thinking of WWL’s light in the loafers Peyton Malone (Not that there’s anything wrong with that).

It's more legal and safety related than marketing.

Agreed, and SIAP, but: regions like Minnesota are generally much more prepared for such low temperatures, with appropriately hardened infrastructure, insulation, snow tires, etc.

They would f*cking melt and die under Louisiana’s mid-day sun during July/August.
