We are supposed to get about 8 inches of snow starting sometime later tonight. I walked to the store about 2 blocks away and emptied their shelves of Cilantro.[;)][:)][:)][:)]

    Oh now a days everything over 2 inches is considered a storm. Our local weather forecasters just salivate when these come to pass. It is not just here remember earlier in the week when that snow hit the East coast
    they thought the world was gonna end.[;)]

    another bs storm headed here tomorrow. Last week we were suppose to get 18 to 24 inches. We got 1". Do they actually pay those forecasters or just find them on the street as magicians. [?] Seriously.[?]

    No, they used to be some of the scientists harping about Global WarmCool Weather Climate.

    But they were fired for being wrong too often.

    they're saying 4-7 inches here.
    which is a pretty significant range.

    NWS says we are supposed to get between 6-12" by Monday morning. Bring it on, my tractor is ready, and I know where my coat is. [:D][:D][:D]

    12-16 is the current guess for our side of the lake.

    Good feeling to know you don't have 80+ miles to plow?

    If you have a chain of stores and you want to rotate your stock, just pay some weather forecasters to predict two feet of snow[:D][:D][:D].

    Government is working on a program that will seed the clouds with cilantro. Within seven years snow will be green and delicious.

    Our dispatch office has been going crazy with these weather reports, paranoid nervous nellies they are! Woke up a little bit ago, about 30 miles from my delivery in Louisville and I have to ask , where's the snow? According to dispatch I should have woken up in the middle of a full blown artic blizzard [8)]
