Can we talk about something for a minute?
Sure
I HATE when news stations blow up every little weather story BEFORE it even happens.
News 12 and their 'storm watch 08' with reporters at the salting stations at 730 am and it's not even freaking snowing...
a storm, IMO is 6 or more inches... 1-3 is NOT enough for a storm watch... and certainly not enough to send a reporter to 7-11, when there isn't even a lick of snow on the ground, to ask commuters what they think of the storm.
THANK YOU!!!!
And even 6 inches is not A LOT of snow.
The worst is when they predicted 3 inches of snow and we get nothing and they say, 'Well folks, we lucked out again.'
It was only supposed to be 3 inches anyway! What is 3 inches gonna do?? Shut down the city? Puh-lease.
They are talking about the snow out in Seattle like it's a friggin avalanche. 'Seattle got a record FOUR INCHES.' Well, let's run to the Piggly Wiggly then. Grab all the water you can find and stock up on bread and canned foods. 'And today, they expect ANOTHER INCH.' Start burning your books to stay warm, folks. You're going to be cut off from society soon.
Ugggggh. It's snow. It melts.![]()

The only storm watch that was ever worthy of a storm watch was the blizzard of 95 (or 96) when we got like 4 feet of snow. I remember opening the front door and you couldn't see out the snow was so high!!!
That, my friends, is a storm.
That was a great storm. Between the snow, Christmas and I was sick I didn't go to school for a month!
