good for you.  and i didn't really care when you got shut out in dec.  enjoy the inch of snow.

I'm not sure what you're doing.  We've had a good winter out here, pretty much running neck and neck with anyone on the board.  We also had a better winter than almost everyone last year.  You have somehow found a way to gripe almost constantly.

 

To each his own, but you might try enjoying what does happen more so than complaining about what doesn't.

I'm surprised the deep south did not close schools and businesses for the whole day, resulting in the traffic disaster down there right now...you would think an ice/snow storm slated to start mid-morning would have caused a whole day closure.

Gives those kids a real-life lesson in dealing with chaos and difficult circumstances. Builds character. Meanwhile, school systems around here will be delayed tomorrow due to sweepable snow.

Dude, I was simply commenting on the NAM that showed the cutoff almost exactly at my door step.  It couldn't be any more laughable; hence the FU.  I simply returned a dick comment, for a dick comment.

Sounds like Commutageddon in the Atlanta and Birmingham metro areas and a nightmare for some school systems preparing to hold the kids overnight at their schools. 

Theres really no excuse for it...they knew this was coming for a couple of days now..If they didnt close schools today, it should of been an 11am dismissal.

This storm has been like a roller coaster with following the model guidance. Not like the big scary type of coaster you might see at King's Dominion or Six Flags, more like the crappy wooden kind that some idiot builds out of plywood and 2x4s in his backyard, basically a wagon on 40 ft. of track with a bunch of rusty nails sticking out of it, but then he charges the neighborhood kids $1.00 to ride on it. They still get on the ride, even though they know how much it sucks, because there's just not much else to do.

People are about 4 years late to the traffic party.  But now I get to post it without people questioning what exactly it is, at least.

Yeah.. not to call you out but it's been hot on Twitter the last few mo now.  And every news org has an ice desk. Originality is a lost cause.
