I think the problem is that "big weather" = "big ratings" for the news shows. They all want to be the first to tell you about the storm. As a result, I think they speculate way to early on the outcome. They had the whole state jumping through hoops with the erroneous forecast. I don't know why they even bother with their "7 day forecast", it seems like the accuracy falls apart after about 12 hours!!

Well as accurate as these brainiac nimrods are, I think I will go out tomorrow and start cleaning my pool. Because as sure as they say cold weather is coming, it's going to be 90 next week and I want to be ready.

Anyone need any rock salt?

6" officially as of 8:30 pm and more to come.

Makes my think about a snowblower but then I'd have to store it the rest of the year.

As of 8:00 Monday morning, we probably got less than 1/2" of snow but at least I have a leak in my garage roof!! I noticed a puddle of water on the floor when I took out the trash!

Yeeeeeeup. Have about 8" here. Even in 4wd, really slick. The street crews were dragging those blades all night up and down the street, as soon as it really hit, I haven't seen one. I did see a Merriam plow stuck on a hill at about 54terr & Antioch.
