thank you notes...for a thankful day

dear mark eubank,
thanks for all the swoops and whishes and the other great noises you make for an exciting weather report. i am so sad to see you go. however, i am glad you passed on the white coat. it makes snow days so much lighter.
a faithful viewer,
liz burton
