Meet AccuWeather meteorologist Jim Kosek. Last Friday, as the SNOWPOCALYPSE was bearing down on the mid-Atlantic region, Kosek delivered the forecast with an unhinged zeal that was equal parts professional wrestler and Chris Farley. My God, it is amazing. He has more passion and excitement for the weather than I do for anything on the planet. Of course, part of that is that he’s on TV while I’m a writer. He can flail around and bellow — and he does — but all I’ve got is caps lock and the exclamation point. GRRRRRAAAHHHH I’M TYPING VERY HARD!!!! See? It’s just not the same.
