LMAO at the idiot forecasters, NO ONE can get it right with all the modern technology they have, amazing......throw the crap computers out and just forecast by looking out the freakin' window....yesterday here in Boston they were predicting snow and NOTHING happened, NOTHING, typical, I can't stand winter because of these idiot forecasters predicting wrong, constant updates about an inch or two and reporters on the beach or on the highway showing us how wet or dry the snow is, I would think with all the freakin' crime in Boston the reporters would have better things to do.......

by meteorological definition a blizzard is a snowstorm containing winds in excess of 35 mph for longer than 3 hours with reduced visibilty to less than 1/4 mile. I remember a couple of times where it would snow 6 inches or so and the winds would be at 60 mph in Kansas for days, we would get 10 foot snowdrifts and driving was impossible for a couple of days.

With two weeks to go before winter, it's a little early for the "Blizzard of '05" award.

1 - 3 inches???? I do that before breakfast. I always laugh when I hear weatherman/newscasters call something a "blizzard" that's actually a dusting. Sure wuth winds topping 35mph you might get "blizzard" conditions temporarily. Just like here in Colorado the other day there were wind gusts up to 90 mph, but we didn't call it a hurricane!! It was a windstorm with hurricane force winds.

LOL!
We went to the AmVets Saturday night and it was flurrying a bit.
Midway through the evening, somebody handed the singer a note saying "If you're leaving, be careful because 2 inches of snow are on the ground".
The sax player replied "Damn. If *that* is 2 inches, I'm a lot better off than I thought".
We went out about 20 minutes later and there was *maybe* an eighth of an inch of slush on the blacktop.

See that would mean you do not understand the definition of a blizzard then. See my above posts on it.

I laugh too when they dramatize 'Blizzard of' or 'Storm of the Century" even though we just started the century.
