W:Really? I thought only children wanted to visit Disneyland.

M:You’d be surprised.It’s an international tourist attraction.

W:Why do you keep doing it?

　　And now for the weather report for the following 72 hours.The national weather map shows a high-pressure area all along the eastern coastline,which will bring them very pleasant,sunny weather from New York to Florida.But showers and thunderstorms are happening from the Ohio River all the way south to the Gulf coast,pouring down heavy amounts of rain over the Southern states.By far the worst of the storms has happened in and around Texas.Some Texas stations have reported up to fifteen inches of rain in a 24-hour period with high winds and thunderstorms.Two typhoons were reported along the Gulf coast of Texas,but we haven’t got the exact information about any damage or injuries.Heavy amounts of snow were reported in the Rocky Mountain area with record cold temperatures in Denver and Boulder.As much as a foot of snow has fallen in some of the mountain stations.In contrast,temperatures in Arizona and the desert Southwest went over the 100-degree mark again under bright,sunny skies.
