just poking around in the accuweather forums, and it seems that a general consensus seems to think there is a giant snowstorm comparable to the blizzard of 78 on its way. theyre referring to it as "the big dog" and "storm of the decade"

RELAX :rolleyes:

 

That's just a bunch of pencil-dicked weather geeks doing the equivalent of some bench racing.

 

At two weeks out, they're good at forecasting sunrise/sunset and moon phases, but when it comes to knowing something as complicated as the local weather, they're notoriously inaccurate. I consider it lucky if they accurately predict a blizzard even 3 days in advance.

 

I think I'll plan a barbeque for the end of February just to demonstrate the point. :cool:

998millibars is Tropical Storm-strength low pressure. Was that today or this week?

 

If you told me back in December that the "storm of '78 redux" was coming this February, I would say that you were mad. After the last couple of weeks? I'm inclined to give you the benefit of the doubt at this point. :)

We're just a pinch away from the snowiest February of all time, and we're only half way through it. Winter tires are really earning their keep this year. ;)
