Spring snowstorm... bad timing

[DoggyDaddy]

Getting all my French Toast supplies today and pulling the old beater 4x4 Dodge out for any travel I need to do tomorrow. My little Hyundai absolutely sucks in any kind of snow.

 

[churchmouse]

I'm camping this weekend and actually hoping for snow. Go figure.

Man I would love to do another He-Man camp out. It has been far to long.

Much of what falls for us in Indy will melt on impact. What stays will melt the next day. Sunday's high is 39 and sunny. This STORM is not much to worry about.

 

[edporch]

I'll believe we're getting a big snowfall here when I see it.

 

[Crittersdad]

@$#% More Snow

 

[Thegeek]

Anyone want to bet a 6-pack that we get less than 2"? This is "fake news" at it's finest. They come on a blurb with "heavy snow may be in our future, tune in at 6 for more". They sensationalize the hell out of it, worst possible scenario and then there's barely anything. FWIW, I'm dead smack in the middle of the "heavy" band.

 

[hoosierdoc]

The models keep shifting. This isn’t being spun I don’t think, just a weird storm and very narrow band of snow. They can’t predict where a giant space station is going to hit

 

[Thegeek]

Not just this one. It's been a pattern. Last time they said we're in for a foot of snow, we got an inch, maybe two.

 

[edporch]

Now they're saying 1-3 inches.

 

[BigRed]

anyone else having travel issues with this?

Not me.... I will be watching it snow while sitting by a warm fire while enjoying a George Remus bourbon and a Peterson pipe stuffed with fine tobacco!

 

[BigRed]

Now they're saying 1-3 inches.

Yeah, it's way down.

I caught a short interview on the news today with the weatherman's wife. She said, "If he's telling you it's going to be 8" you can expect about 3" at most."

Right, nobody is going to freeze to death waiting for the furnace repairman to trudge through the snow. But it doesn't take much to really mess up travel, which isn't something we usually think about in the end of March.

It only messes up travel to those who drive like dumb**ses.

Oh I don't know. One dumbass can mess up the road for thousands of us.

Winter storm 2018 brought to you by Krogers-now back to your regular scheduled programming. Sounds like a bust for us up here.

Probably somewhere in the same band.

I heard some people talking about getting 6 to 7 inches of snow, but then I realized that they were discussing the latest season finale of Game of Thrones.

Woke up at 4:30AM. No rain, no ice, no snow.

No much for the hysteria.

Is the weather brought to us by INGO?
