Winter is coming............
Not long after I moved here we had 2 good snow storms around Thanksgiving. I think total was over 14". Good times. 1987 maybe?
1987 was the Veteran's Day storm, the prediction was for a dusting to 2" and we got around a foot or so. Schools and the government went in and when rush hour was about half over schools were cancelled and the Feds already in were sent home. Since SHA wasn't ready for the storm, because of the forecast, the roads were a cluster####. A lot of kids in Prince George's had to stay the night at the schools, the buses couldn't get to the buildings.
I think the year we had the Thanksgiving storm was maybe 1988. Shoveled about 8 or 10 inches of snow of the pontoon boat's deck so we could get out on the Bay to hunt sea ducks. That year we got a bunch of snow but it always hit in Friday night or Saturday and things were cleaned up by Monday.
Thanks, all I remember is we had two hit a couple days apart. Back then I had my '70 Blazer and I was the only one getting out of my neighborhood.
Laugh all you want, but has arkie ever been wrong with a weather prediction?

SMOW - you mean single mothers on welfare? Are there enough to prevent getting to work? Making the streets un-passable? Aren't they always in season???
SMOW is my word.

Careful. You'll break your arm patting yourself on the back like that.
Starting my anti-snow dance now.
