Full Version: The Joel N. Myers Weather Center
That's what Penn State named their beautiful new weather station after the scourge of the meteorological community bribed them with...oh...ummm...donated $2 million dollars. I'm glad he's willing to donate so much because I won't give another dime as long as that man's name is on it.
Why didn't they rename it the Joel N. Myers Sweat Shop?

Plus, PSU has always been associated with the best in the field of meteorology. Joel Myers has always been associated with the worst. Not sure why Penn State would lower its reputation like that. Well, I do..."Everybody's got a price for the Two Million-Dollar Man"

Not since 2003. I work from home for a company called Radio Forecast Network. Why do you think I get so pi$$ed when people say I am part of the Accu hype machine. LOL

No. I have a lot of friends there and they have some outstanding meteorologists...and I mean people behind the scenes you never see or hear about...but what AccuWeather has become recently is sad. There used to be a true dedication to quality and accuracy. Now its just how many products they can pump out as automated as they can.
