Weathermen suck.
Here in the Twin Cities they have, falsely, reported that we were/are going to get hit over the next couple days. The forecast is calling for 11 inches at the most. Of course this all was suppose appear this afternoon. Well it is now 10:15 and no snow, none, zero, zilch, nada. I don't get it. The weather men or people couldn't forecast their way out of a paper bag. Why do they get paid? I have waited all year for a good storm, and it isn't going to happen. They have been hyping this all week. It isn't going to live up to the hopes of the big March Madness storm Minnesotans think we get.
I am starting to think the best thing out of Minnaepolis these days is "Atmosphere."

Looks like it went south of ya...as it did here.

We were supposed to get 1-3" here in Minot, ND.

We got .6"

I guess Bismarck got dumped on though.

Its coming down now.

The Current is also a nice thing about Minneapolis. And I'm rather partial to faux jean as well.

The Big Wu is also fun to catch, and the indie stuff on the Current is great. Yeah, I'm sitting in Bob's watching the white stuff come down, but the hype was that it would be more than it is. I suppose Rochester is the place to be, 17 inches, they were threatening closing I-90. Hope NYC is getting ready cause that's where this will track to, and dump more snow on the East coast. This will all be gone in a couple days.
