What's the subject? Metric, of course. Well actually, Tropical Storm Carlotta, expected to be a hurricane by Friday. AP goes out of their way to change the the symbol for kilometers per hour (km/h) used by the National Hurricane Center to a wrong "kph" to help confuse readers who understand metric better than Customary. (Yes, guilty, I made the bitter comment which follows the article.) http://news.yahoo.com/tropical-storm-carlotta-forms-pacific-south-mexico-expected-085210645.html Reuters uses metric correctly, has a nice graphic, and even goes to the trouble of converting storm surge to metric (a suggestion I made to NHC which they apparently did not accept). http://www.trust.org/alertnet/news/tropical-storm-carlotta-is-forecast-to-strike-mexico-as-a-hurricane-at-about-0000-gmt-on-16-june/ When the numbers count, you can count on AP to confuse you.
