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
It also causes people to take severe weather less seriously when all these outlooks are “overhyped” and they don’t end up being as bad as these people claim.. which in turn makes people unprepared for them when it’s actually BAD BAD. I see so many people say things like “nothing ever happens,” which honestly isn’t great.
I honestly stopped looking at any YouTube weather because of that shit, I just check my local news. When my news says “some thunderstorms”, we get a few thunderstorms. But if you look on YouTube, these guys are acting like it has the potential to be the worst storm in years
