Well I called that pretty well, as the loophole I noticed in the forecast came into play, and the storm formed farther east than first thought. This means that even though they predicted 12"-24" of snow, we will end up with under a foot when it's all said and done, (though in fairness, the snowfall is apparently pretty impressive east of here, so here's hoping everyone stays safe in those areas). Amusingly, because the weatherman added the caveat that the storm would be smaller if it formed to the east, this morning he is claiming the 2"-6" of not-blizzard we received is just what he predicted, which is pretty weak. Anyway, I'm not complaining that there's less shoveling to do, I'm just amused by the reluctance to admit the advance hysteria was overblown. In a bloviated press briefing from our governor and a panel of solemn officials this morning, he announced the lifting of all the unnecessary travel bans they enacted in case this was an actual blizzard. They say the fact that nobody died on the roads proved this was all quite prudent. I just want to point out that if they ban cars altogether, road deaths will drop to zero permanently.
