http://newsok.com/article/5450157Westboro Baptist Church, a Topeka-based group that has gained notoriety for picketing at military funerals, is staging a protest next week in Norman.
The group announced on Twitter that they will picket on Oct. 8 outside the National Weather Center on the University of Oklahoma's research campus. The protest is being held in conjunction with a Society of Environmental Journalists conference. The conference is expected to draw hundreds of journalists, including reporters from The Oklahoman.
OU spokeswoman Catherine Bishop said the protest will be held on a circular drive adjacent to the National Weather Center.
"While the university will be prepared, we do not anticipate any disruption to the academic activities of the university," Bishop said.
When I was forecasting, I always told complainers I was in sales, not management of the weather.
