Weather Report: A Super Bowl Surprise

Watching a weather report during a hurricane and hearing about a famous football game! That’s what happened when The Weather Channel’s Paul Goodloe mentioned Super Bowl LI while covering Hurricane Milton in Florida. The storm hit Wednesday night, and Goodloe was reporting from Sarasota as the eye passed overhead. He used a unique way to explain the calm before the storm, comparing it to the halftime show. He warned viewers not to be fooled by the quiet, as the storm’s second half was coming, just like the Patriots’ comeback in that Super Bowl. Goodloe’s point was clear: don’t underestimate the storm just because there’s a brief calm. Milton made landfall near Sarasota, causing power outages for over three million Floridians. Meanwhile, sports fans were getting ready for the Bruins’ home opener against the Canadiens.
