Traffic, Gangsta Style - Only in NC

Someone forwarded me this video of the traffic girl on WXII (Winston-Salem, North Carolina) doing the traffic report "gansta style" earlier this week. Warning: It's pretty painful to watch, possibly even worse than our "High Pressure: The Pilot" bit.

I didn't mark this post off-topic because I wanted to call attention to WXII's weatherman Austin Caviness, who you see at the end of the video. It's always a pleasant surprise to see folks on-air (especially in my home state!) who I knew from meteorology school at UNCA. When we got out in the mid-1990's, most of my cohorts who stayed in the science went into TV, because competition was stiff amongst the private companies and a government hiring freeze was in effect.
