Come on, that's a 50% range. Really? I could see a 10-15% +/- on the inch totals.
Could you imagine being a contractor and being 8-16 inches off?

I am just thankful that all of the incompetent people choose meteorology over medicine.

....guess I'll just pop some corn and watch the show like it's my very own ant farm again, like I did when Sandy struck.
It's unbelievable how so many of you folks just won't learn your lesson.

The lesson of taking the warnings seriously and then if it turns out that all went better than it could have been you can be happy about it.

Everywhere you go, people are overly skeptical and complacent. Don't let it happen to you.

"Well... we have one computer model that is forecasting 5' of snow in an apocalyptic-type disaster that has the POTENTIAL to leave people starving, without electric or heat, and clinging to life for days AND we have several other models which are forecasting 4-8 inches. YOU (the dumb-masses) are lucky you have US (the intelligent news crew) figuring all this out for you - stay tuned to station WBIMBO for the latest on the Blizzard of 2013 as we continue our 2/47 coverage of this ever-changing situation."
