This order is issued because there is compelling evidence in the record that Minnesota Meteorologists have conspired with the other defendants to increase television and radio ratings. Who, for example, would watch the weather in Hawaii, where it is always nice?

Check out the whole tongue-in-cheek order on the next page, because Judge Burke clearly spent a lot of time and effort crafting this opinion.
