SteveB Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Any truth to the old saying "A Storm Delayed is a Storm Denied"? I keep seeing the guidance is pushing back the former Christmas storm to the next day. It's like it's stuck in time on the models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This happens all the time it seems. Like magic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like magic! The 2003 President's Day storm got pushed back a day or so, and it certainly didn't disappoint snow lovers from DC to Boston. I would say there are times when this is good and times when it is bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say there are times when this is good and times when it is bad. On this occasion I think it is VERY good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voyager Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 The only part I've seen come true is when it's storm day and it's supposed to snow. Then you wait and wait and wait, but nothing but virga. It's these storms that often seem to be denied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
