Of course I'm acting like a 22 year old. That's where I've left off being myself, in Early 1997.

Once you get rid of the bells and whistles, all that's left is your true personality.

(Becomes visible and appears) Ghost reporting. Does anyone need to be haunted?

A typical show on WCRI 88.3 FM

From our studios on Straight Wharf, this is WCRI 88.3 FM, serving Nantucket, Cape Cod, The Vineyard and southeastern Peter State. We play the current hits and favorite classics. From Rock and Roll to the latest dance hits. We are WCRI.

Jim: Well, for those of you just getting up this morning, make sure you put on your boots, the snow is coming down hard.

Jack: Yup, make sure you make way for the plows coming down the road. I wonder if people around town will take the advice?

Jim: Probably, if anything they'll all be at work and possibly get stuck. We just got a phone call from one of our listeners in New Bedford, she says the snow is coming down pretty fast.

Jack: Well, you know I'm sure over by the Brownell estate over there, it'd have to come down fast, after all, they are a military family, so they march, can't have lacksadaisical snowflakes.

Jim: You're right, tell them damn snowflakes to get a job. Anyways, we have some great music coming up for you this morning, we have the latest from George Harrison, although I find the song to be absolutely annoying. we have a freestyle hit in there by Shavonne, and the latest from Taylor Dayne. You're listening to WCRI, Nantucket.

Announcer: Ladies, is your corset getting to you? Try the newest "health corset" from Adler Corset Company. Instead of laces, buttons will secure you inside. Adler, because a woman's comfort is worth it.

Let's take a look at Cape and SE Peter State traffic: We have an accident that's related to the snow on I-195 in Wareham, other than that, the roads are in bad shape, but the plows are working on them.

Now for weather from chief meteorologist Phil Yates of WCAP Channel 5.

Phil: for the next ten hours we are going to be socked in by snow. The snow should taper off to flurries after midnight as the storm pulls away into Newfoundland Waters. High tem today should be only 25 degrees. Winds will be sharp out of the northeast. For WCRI 88.3, I'm meteorologist Phil Yates.

Jack: Thanks Phil, at least while you're inside the house today relaxing by the fire listen to us, we'll bring the heat with our music. School cancellations are many throughout the listening area. We'll kick off a WCRI Free Ride with "Tell it to my heart" by Taylor Dayne.

(song plays)

Don't go running when you have a full stomach. You will get nauseous. I just learned this the hard way.

Today a paranoid bird decided that I was out to eat his children and swooped me. I hate all magpies.

My supervisor hates sensitive people. She only gave me two days, this week. I plan on collecting pop cans from the parking lot of the casino down the street, on the 5 mornings of the days that I don't work.

I love Japanese logic. My Playstation 3 froze in game which left me with the only option of turning it off with the power switch. Upon turning it back on, the system gave me a message as if I'm a ret*d telling me that I shut it off improperly and suggested I shut it down correctly next time >_<

From a newscast dated March 13, 1893


Margaret O' Malley: The storm of the century continues to bear down upon the entire eastern Creedon Republic, however the effects in the Peter City Metro area have been relatively severe.

John Donaldson: Up to 14 inches of snow has fallen in places like Canton, Quincy, and Attleboro. For the latest on the storm, we head straight to chief meteorologist Jim Higgins. Jim?

Jim Higgins: Well for one thing, this storm will surpass the storm that occurred on this same date back in 1888, hey I made a rhyme. Looking at the latest satellite picture, we see that this storm truly is a beast, with a massive comma head and a tail that stretches all the way down into the United States. Snowfall rates in the southern suburbs have been as much as 6" in an hour. Not all of it however, is snow. There are reports from eastern Sioux Island and Ramea that hint at extremely heavy rainfall. Here on radar, we see the rain/snow line is located in Brookhaven, and down to the east of Nantucket Island. The center of the storm itself is easy to see on radar. We have a few of our other meteorologists out in the storm reporting live to you. Dick Albert is in Scituate, Harvey Leonard is in Attleboro, and Bruce Schwoegler is in Brookhaven. We'll go to Dick Albert first. Dick?

Dick Albert: Jim, if there ever was a saying that involved building houses next to water and putting them up on stilts, this would be the perfect example. Coastal flooding here is worse than in both March '88, October '91, and December '92 combined. The winds have been steadily out of the east-northeast sustained at 55 mph, and have been gusting close to 80. This is truly a blizzard. On the ground now, we have about a foot of snow in the centre of town, just a little less on the immediate shore. The roads here are impassable. President Burgess has declared this entire area a federal disaster area. Behind me, Cape Cod Bay is one rough piece of water. The navy has declared that all ships remain in port. Well, that's the report from Scituate.

Margaret O' Malley: Now we go straight to Attleboro, where Harvey Leonard is standing in front of City Hall. Harvey?

Harvey Leonard: Margaret, if you can see behind me, you'll know that this is the Attleboro City Hall. Jim mentioned earlier that Attleboro has about 14" of snow, Jim I just took a measurement, and found that since I've been here, four more inches have fallen! The streets are impassable, and all schools here are canceled for the day. The mayor is ordering everyone remain indoors where it is safe. This is not a situation where you would want to be stuck outside. Winds are sustained in the low 50's with a few gusts to above 70 mph. I-95/65 is an absolute ghost town. General Creedon International Airport is closed. That's all from Attleboro. Margaret, back to you.

Margaret O' Malley: Finally, we go to Brookhaven, out on Sioux Island, where a different type of weather is ocurring, Bruce?

Bruce Schwoegler: Margaret, while you have been dealing with snow, we've been dealing with torrential rain out here on the eastern end of Sioux Island. The temperatures here have been hovering around 40 and the wind is out of the southeast. School is in session out here, but that may change as the rain/snow line is advancing east/northeastward. I just felt a sleet pellet hit my face, so it is beginning to change over. We'll update you on the latest as it happens. Margaret, John-back to you.

John Donaldson- We have one of our reporters, Harrison Johnston at the naval headquarters in Newport on the latest issuance from the navy.

Harrison-Yes, Admiral Bukater has just issued a statement saying that due to the storm, all vessels, unless in transit should remain in port. This was admiral earlier:

Admiral Bukater- At 8:40 this morning, I issued a notice to ALL mariners stating that any vessel, unless in transit should remain where they are. Seas have been reported to be as high as 60 feet off of Cape Cod. Unless you absolutely have to be transiting these waters, please remain in port until conditions go below gale force, which isn't expected until Thursday afternoon.

Harrison- As you can see, the admiral is concerned for the safety of mariners.
