Mike's Minute: The economic damage caused by weather warnings
Labels: Mike Hosking, Weather warningsThis is quite possibly from our "hopeless causes" file.
But can I at least try and make the plea that we have a look at the economic damage done by trigger-happy weather offices and compliant clickbait media when it comes to storm warnings?
Cyclone Vaianu was the latest and is hopefully still fresh enough in our memories to remind us of a week's worth of hyperbole and headline nonsense that actually caused quite a lot of damage.
Not storm damage, but economic damage.
