Roy Mustang has a promising career as a meteorologist
As you can see, the updraft is causing a high pressure system
Apparently it messed up their TV. Forget the actual threat of a Tsunami, fans were up in arms with the obstructing weather warnings. Of course, the Tsunami happened to coincide with the very special episode of FMA: Brotherhood where Winry strips in front of Edward. Wait, what? I don't remember that episode, but I'm sure it needed the tag "Very special episode," since I'm sure we would have all learned an important lesson of some sort. AND IT WAS RUINED!
Sankaku reports that the weather warnings were varied by locations, but hey, I like to pretend this episode was really just an action packed weather commentary.
I really need to catch up on the FMA manga I followed it for a bit and than dropped off since YTV started airing the anime. (manga released in 2005 and anime broadcasted on YTV in 2006) People keep telling me how great it is.
Those are REALLY obtrusive weather warnings! I'd be annoyed, too. Safety is very important, of course.... But around here it's a tiny image in the corner of the screen, and a scrolling ticker on the bottom.
The Winry stripping bit has some fact to it:
"Yup I had to become a damn weatherman. Everyone is out covering the cool stories, I get to stand here in the rain and snow."

Given the nature of his power, it just makes me more adorably depressed/pissed off.
@Superevil225: Cool! (on the surviving your fail-sami)
@Nanashi:
The simulcast they do with FUNimation is a separate venture, so you can assume its unaffected. Though, the reality is that that message wasn't uniform. So some viewers were unaffected at all.
