OT but had to post this, this is pure poetry genius

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED

NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LUBBOCK TX

1116 PM CST SAT DEC 24 2011

NOTE...AVIATION AFD IS BELOW.

.UPDATE...

TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS AT LEAST FOR A BIT MORE...

AND WE HAVE BEEN WATCHING THE SNOW FALL OUTSIDE THE DOOR.

THE SNOW WILL CONTINUE THROUGH ALL OF CHRISTMAS DAY...

AMOUNTS IN THE GRIDS ARE NOW THROWN IN THE FRAY

A TROWAL WILL SET UP ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH CHRISTMAS DAY

AND MOISTURE IS IN PLACE WHILE THE SKIES STAY GRAY.

LIFT STAYS CLOSE BY AS THE LOW HARDLY MOVES...

BUT HOW CLOSE WILL IT BE AND WHICH MODEL TO CHOOSE?

BANDING WILL CONTINUE AS WE STAY NORTHEAST OF THE LOW...

OUTSIDE OF THE BANDS THE SNOW WILL FALL SLOW.

SNOW WILL AGGREGATE INSIDE OF THE BANDS

AND ONE INCH PER HOUR RATES COULD COVER THE LANDS.

MOST OF THE AREA HOWEVER WILL SEE RATES A BIT LIGHT...

LESS THAN ONE HALF AN INCH WILL HOPEFULLY BE RIGHT.

ACCUMULATIONS ARE TRICKY WITH SNOW ALREADY DOWN...

7 INCHES IN HALE CENTER WITH AN INCH AROUND TOWN.

IF LIFT COMBINES WITH THE TROWAL AND MOISTURE IN PLACE...

HEAVIER SNOWFALL AMOUNTS COULD DEFINITELY BE THE CASE.

ALL MODELS HINT THAT THE TROWAL WILL BE NEARBY...

BUT THE EXACT LOCATION COULD MAKE ME THE FALL GUY.

WILL HOLD OFF ON CHANGES UNTIL ALL THE MODELS ARRIVE

SO THE MID SHIFT CAN EVALUATE AND SEE IF THEY JIVE.

3 TO 5 INCHES IS WHAT THE NAM TRIES TO ADD

BUT THE CMC SHOWS ONLY ONE AND THAT DIFFERENCE IS BAD.

IF THERE IS GOOD NEWS IN THE CONCERNS I HAVE STATED...

IT IS THAT THE MID SHIFT WILL BE HERE SOON AND HOPEFULLY GLAD

THAT I WAITED.

WILL KEEP ALL THE PRODUCTS GOING IN THE STATE THEY ARE NOW

AND HOPE AND PRAY THAT HEAVIER AMOUNTS I WON/T HAVE TO PLOW.

THE OTHER ISSUE IN PLACE IS THE LOW STAYS FOR A FEW DAYS...

SNOW COULD LINGER INTO MONDAY WHICH WE WILL HAVE TO APPRAISE.

TOO MANY THINGS TO CONSIDER IN THIS LAST HOUR ON OUR SHIFT...

AND THE TAFS STILL HAVE TO BE DONE BEFORE WE GO ADRIFT.

YET ANOTHER CHRISTMAS EVE IS ABOUT TO GO BY

AND MY AFD IS OUT FOR YOU TO ENJOY.

HOWEVER SOME FOLKS DO SAY THAT THIS TRADITION IS GETTING OLD...

THAT IT SHOULD DISAPPEAR LIKE CHEESE COVERED IN MOLD.

THE TRADITION WILL CONTINUE THAT STARTED SO LONG AGO...

OUR THOUGHTS IN RHYME THAT I STRIVE TO BESTOW.

SO ONCE AGAIN BEFORE WE HEAD OUT INTO STUFF FALLING THAT IS WHITE

MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM WFO LUBBOCK...AND TO ALL A GOODNIGHT!
