"Sometimes it's the weather. Although other reporters had stories on subjects such as fee increase protests, hit-and-run student deaths and student standoffs with authorities, this reporter's weather story was well-written and well-covered. It included lively quotes, good details and an expert opinion on why so much damage occurred. Best lead too."
