Meterologists have hecklers, too

Yes, Virginia, meteorologists have hecklers, too. A coupla them gave KXLY chief meterologist Kris Crocker what for on her business Facebook wall when she and other weather forecasters whiffed on their prediction of a ha-huge storm at dusk Thursday. “You call that a snowstorm, Kris,” trash-talked one Facebook Friend. OK, meterologist trash talk is pretty tame stuff. Huckleberries agrees with another of Kris’ BFFs who said that he liked it when a “SNOW STORM” -- his capital letters, not Huckleberries' -- isn’t as nasty as predicted.
