Gothamist loves it when the National Weather Service gives us a snappy headline in their forecast discussion. The things to ponder haven't changed in several days.

Law & Order turns 300 tonight, and over the past few years and after successfully extending the brand, everyone has been tripping over themselves to explain exactly why Law & Order been so successful.
