How you uh, how you comin' on that novel you're working on? Huh? Got a a big, uh, big stack of papers there? Got a, got a nice litte story you're working on there? Your big novel you've been working on for three years? Huh? Got a, got a compelling protagonist? Yeah? Got a obstacle for him to overcome? Huh? Got a story brewing there? Working on, working on that for quite some time? Huh? Yeah, talking about that three years ago. Been working on that the whole time? Nice little narrative? Beginning, middle, and end? Some friends become enemies, some enemies become friends? At the end your main character is richer from the experience? Yeah? Yeah? No, no, you deserve some time off. |

I'm hearing they'll be falling rapidly and we could be closer to 12:1 or 13:1. The models are not keeping up with what's being reported. -------------------- I was anti-Obama before it was cool...

To get a little more technical, I think a lot of models started to indicate we'd be seeing more of a sleet/mix for a few hours. That, of course, would lower our accumulation totals. BUT, as we're all seeing across the area, it's snow all the way to the ground pretty much everywhere. As this moves in, the mid-30s temps will be dropping below freezing and it's just going to be an absolute machine until later on Saturday. The sheer size of this storm makes December feel like a little brother.
