I honestly don't think they literally talked about anything else. I turned it on at 7:30, stopped paying attention to it but everytime I look up (right now the Phoenix mayor is giving a press conference, I understand there is flooding but c'mon!) it is rain, rain, rain.

It is 11:46 AZ time. Storm hit my spot the strongest about 1-2am so who knows how long the stations spent talking about it but at-least 6-7 hours.

Take the word "local" out and your rant would still hold water. Glassunion Sep 2014 #5
