Always nice to see DT have a break down on Facebook

Which is every other day. :) Pretty much quit following him which is a shame because he is a decent forecaster. His act was old and when he began slamming other forecasters on a continual basis just to prop himself up I had enough.

Looks like mappy is getting a bunch of eyeball totals for her map.

 

dont worry -- i can easily tell who is full of shiit when it comes to their measuring. how the map turns out based on shiitty data doesn't lie.

One of my biggest pet peeves is when people get the terminology wrong.

 

"Winter storm advisory" or "Winter weather warning" makes me cringe.

I haven't showered since Friday morning. Coming up on about 76 hours.  I think I will need to rectify that during the lull.

 

Paul (a French coffee shop) opened up a block away from me a few months back.  It's been a good place to quickly stop in during my Jebwalks and sit in the window. So far 2 cups of coffee and 2 smoked salmon croissants eaten today.

I'm all about the smoked salmon croissants, but the lack of showering needs to be addressed. You are as hard core for weather as i've ever seen.

Lol

 

Awesome.  I wish we had a good coffee shop like that in these parts.  Of course, they'd need titanium pillars like the ones surrounding the Capitol to keep the monthly "crash into a store front" drivers around here from creating a drive thru. 

 

Snow, 25, and slowly rising temps.

I love snow.  A lot of folks are a bit more into the chase and tracking and totals.  I don't care as much about totals other than from a stats keeping perspective.  Perhaps because for most events I do worse than 90% of people posting in this forum. Part of the reason I'd like to move to a snowier locale is not only because I love snow, but I don't want to spend as much time tracking smaller events.

I love it too. I would be lying if I said I wasn't a little disappointed we didn't do better up here as I thought we could squeeze out maybe 3 but it's not that big a deal because we still have had snow falling all day with very cold temps and I love days like this even when it doesnt add up to much. We had a really great winter week here so I have no complaints. Glad you guys scored down there.

I want a lot of snow of course but no point chasing totals in my location. It's freeing to be a loser, lol, you just enjoy the snow...

 

My street decided to cave 30 minutes ago and a plow just came through. :-(

It's a reality we live with around here. It's happened five times in the past four years.

It's unreal around here. It seems like it happens once a week. I'm waiting for some old lady to plow through the library. That parking lot is more dangerous than Syria.

A couple years ago somebody drove their car into the side wall of the bank of America on old court rd. You remember that.
