If this is anything like the "experts" are saying it is going to be it deserves its own thread

experts?

where are these experts you speak of?

you mean News weather men/women !?!?

good lord they are the furthest thing from "expert"

for example this last storm in December I can quote Marty Bass (sp) for saying " expect 5"-24" ".... thats the most rediculous forcast i ever heard.

given I live in Cecil county.. i'll turn to the good people of the southerwestern counties on FTE to give me the hour heads up on whats coming my way

I'm in Talbot County and we are in the REALLY dark blue section on the weather map. Please notice the use of quotation marks around the word experts -but they do have a sweet job-where else can you be wrong more often than you are right and still keep your job

NO, the National Weather Service..... this is where the TV stations get much of their information....and then they basterdize it to their own liking.

National and Local Weather Forecast, Hurricane, Radar and Report and type in your zip code.

truth be told , i'm a novice juggler. up to 5 objects, typically a ball style but I do own rings and pins.

I also have a tattoo on my leg of an artistic juggler, taken from a cirque du soliel preformer Viktor Kee.

however...I am known to make a funny here and there




ok back on topic, I was schedule to go in at 2 am Sat to take over plow duties however that has been changed to Noon Sat now as my employer has already conceeded defeat and has chosen to "clean up" rather the "keep up"
