Well, according to some links on The Drudge Report this morning, the storm did fail to meet expectations in many areas, especially in NYC, which only got 6" or so. One meteorologist at the National Weather Service even went so far as to apologize for getting the predictions wrong.

Which also goes to prove my point about these global warming nut cases. If the local weather folks can't even get the correct forecast a couple of days ahead of time, how in the heck can these climate change fanatics get it right 50-100 years down the road. Answer: They can't.

I was actually surprised to see CNN even covering this faux historic blizzard yesterday on the TV. I joke with my wife, that every time I turn that channel on at home, they are always talking about missing Malaysian airliners. Stuck on stupid.

I just surfed through the news channels to see how they were walking this thing back. They are showing pre-recorded video from places where they were actually getting heavy snow at some point this morning intermixed with computer generated video of show.

They keep trying to claim that New York City has got 6” of snow... but they obviously do not have that much on the ground where the reporters are at.

One would think there would be talk about these multi-state “travel bans” and where they are still in effect and whether it was good idea to restrict people’s movement because of a storm threat that largely did not materialize. It does seem like there are some direct parallels with the global warming scam. You would thing that despite rising CO2 levels... after 18 years and 3 months of satellite data showing no statistically significant warming, a pause that not one of the warmist models predicted that this would shake the faith of even some of the true believers.

There is one phrase that I have now heard repeated on basically every network, “better safe than sorry”. On CNN they are now showing a location in Boston where the terrain makes it look like there has been a lot of snow, but you can see that there is very little on the tops of picnic tables and boats in the background.

They are still calling it a “monster blizzard” that just didn’t hit where we thought. They are saying that there has been “predictable moaning and groaning” that Governor De Blasio over reacted.
