Well, I'm sure it will be full of death and destruction and all that other good disaster movie stuff.

My predictions:
-The guy gets back together with his wife. Duh, no brainer.
-The girl's boyfriend dies when a wall/ceiling fan/garbage can falls on him.
-The news director sees that it's not about ratings after all.
-The Bimbo Love Affair turns on the Smarmy Power Company Guy, who will get some kind of comeupance, probably from that Nice Energy Secretary Lady.

A couple longshots:
-Bimbo Love Affair apologizes to Scorned Wife, wishes them the best.
-Whistleblower is offered a promotion, probably a position somewhere near the top of the company.

BTW, 8pm is when the VCR starts. I don't plan on sitting through those 6-minute commerial breaks.

Don't forget also - Brian Dennehy's character Andy (the "National Weather Association" :lol: guy) who is about to retire -- he'll die a heroic death.

Oh yeah, I forgot... some kind of vindication for him. Maybe a comeupance for the hotshot smartass who's replacing him, too.

If it's as bad as the 1st part... I'd rather watch paint dry while I'm hung from the ceiling.

I do think it'll be better though. The 1st part lacked weather stuff.

They may have refer to "93 millibars" meaning "993 millibars." It could be a cutway.

Regarding the 93mb -- my best friend mentioned that the actor may have flubbed the line and no one (like the script supervisor) caught it, but the writer may have written it correctly.

If the winds in a 900MB storm are 160K+, what would the winds be in a 93MB storm?
