Susan,

It is good with “real” (i.e., not canned) chicken, but I as trying to make it to where she could make it with minimal extraneous cooking. Granted, there are those packages of grilled chicken cut in strips that you could use if you cut it up into smaller pieces. That may work, too.

Susan,
Those Santa Ana winds are caused by High Pressure that settles across the Great Basin. Clockwise winds flow through the canyons and passes – compressing the air essentially and pushing them downslope creating an offshore flow.

Guillaume,
Not aware of any weather-fixing for the Olympics. Yes, there’s something called cloud seeding which is what you’re talking about with the rain…but I’m not sure about how to ensure sunny weather. Where did you hear of this?

Sal, yes we do have a weather producer that sits in with all of our producers in the morning to talk about what the big story will be for that day. But the products that we have are based on the NWS and NHC.

Hey Dawn,

New Orleans got 1.84 inches, Biloxi 1.47, Houston 2.53…the southeast was a little less due to the mixing…
