You Don't Need a Weatherman to Know Which Way the Wind Blows

It was coming. The great winter storm of 2007. 12-18 inches in 2 days. Pandemonium was to reign. Kool-Aid Report had the warnings.

AVOID SLEDDING. SLEDDING HAS BEEN KNOWN TO CAUSE INJURY TO THE HEAD, NECK AND COXYX COCKSYX COXXYXX BUTT.

I love snow. I have today off of work, so I was going to sit back with some coffee, then later hot chocolate, then maybe a glass or two of McCallan 12 Year. Instead, got this:


All of a sudden, last night the predictions got changed from 8-12 inches (already down from earlier in the week) to 3-6 inches over 2 days. This is what fell over Friday night. (Note: the big red snowflake is just a window sticky thing, not an actual red snowflake, which would have made this a completely different post.)

I've heard it said that weathermen are wrong to often to trust them, but right too often to ignore them. They haven't been right at all this winter. There was a day they predicted 3 inches of snow, and no snow fell at all.

I'm ready to move to upstate New York, just so I can get some decent snow. Who's with me?
