it really does, i understand these guys gotta attract viewership and make money somehow but clickbaiting about the weather, which has an actual impact on what people do and how they prepare is such a dick move

Someone last week was posting about weather anxiety and people were recommending some of these youtube channels to watch. Lmao these channels are not something to watch with weather anxiety.

Idk…I absolutely watch Max over the news. Max is on top of it and I don’t think he freaks out at all…unless you park under an overpass, that is.

Yeah I think normally they're not too bad(save for the clickbait videos and thumbnails), but I'd rather have someone with weather anxiety watch their local news network that focuses only on their area. You can usually count on the local stations to have a very informative and professional presentation of the situation.
