People who obsess when bad weather is coming

Irritate the living shit out of me. We had bad weather coming this morning, everyone is calling on the phone, saying, "Turn on the TV" "Look outside" etc etc etc. So the bad weather doesn't actually even come into your area until late afternoon, but everyone has spent the entire morning and early afternoon looking at maps and looking outside and calling to tell each other how bad it looks and where it seems to be headed and oh boy look at it. Just let the fucking bad weather affect you when it gets to you. Not like looking at it is going to make it turn around and go away. Argh! it's irritating as fuck.
