significant wintry weather; and a snowman!

I’m killing time right now, sittign in the library at school, waiting on red to finish up in her class… and since i’ve got that nice bit of time, i’ve been checking out the weather forecasts, and seeing how excited everyone’s getting…

They’ve put up this little graphic over at the NWS:

Significant Wintry Weather Possible Late Thursday through Saturday via kwout

The part I hate is where we’re still uncertain on timing and amounts. Darned weather…

…oh yeah, and if anyone wants to kick in on some conspiracy theory jokes, Kroger has taken control of the models, and is trying to get everyone to buy more milk and bread…. I don’t think this one’s true… now Wal-Mart on the other hand… 😛 Hey, it’d make better sense–they got more supplies to try and get rid of… gotta make room for them bathing suits!
