On the beach, waiting for Frances

Welcome to the exciting world of hurricane journalism!

? What you should wear: Always choose the flimsiest rain jacket available, to visually dramatize the effect of strong winds. All foul-weather gear should be brightly colored in the event you’re swept out to sea or sucked down a drainage culvert, and someone actually goes searching for you.

On the beach, waiting for Frances (Miami Herald)
