Check this out, such drama, such expression. This weatherman aspires to be something more.

"A short wave buckle in the jet stream created by a cold pool of air aloft over the Gulf of Alaska will move southeastward over the Canadian Rockies today and be positioned over Montana Tuesday. This cold pool harbors temperatures some 60 degrees below zero (Fahrenheit) at the 30,000-foot jet stream level--readings very similar to the cold pool of air that just passed over Lake Superior and is now moving toward the East Coast. A rather moist low-level southerly flow will return to the southern Plains Tuesday. When the clash occurs Wednesday, the resulting instability (cold air sinking and forcing the warm, moist air aloft) will create a strong low pressure system in the central Plains. This low will track east and north through the Midwest and western Great Lakes with a developing rain pattern that could result in widespread 1-inch-plus rains over a broad portion of the Mississippi and Ohio valleys Wednesday and Thursday. As the cold air aloft becomes vertical with the surface low pressure later in the week over Lower Michigan, the entire system will slow down to a crawl, and cold northwest flow will persist over northern Illinois.
