Good snow juju - Feb 1-3??

[Thundersnow]

This morning's little 2 inch snow was actually pretty satisfying for me.

Don't get me wrong... I would definitely still appreciate a 6 incher or better.

But, at this point, I don't think I'll feel as disappointed as I would if we got absolutely nothing out of the winter (which happens sometimes).

[Thundersnow]

I'm with you, Renee, about severe wx.  I'm equally a fan of both winter and severe wx (well, i may lean toward winter wx a little more).  But, severe wx is definitely a rush.

That's partly why I chose the name "Thundersnow."  First of all, "thundersnow" is a cool phenomenon in itself.  But, secondly, it alludes to both severe weather and winter weather.

I much prefer severe wx over winter wx anyday. But, if it gets me out of school, I don't care what it is.

[Thundersnow]

Well, severe wx is generally more dependable than winter wx in these parts anyway.

No doubt. I know another state with that same issue:

I have always said that I wish people were not injured by natural disasters. Screw baseball, we all know what America's favorite past time would be then.

Sure hate it for these people. What an experience it must have been.

Aaaaah the mystery is solved. My name is not nearly as interesting as that. I just got it cuz Im Renee and they started calling me Ruh-nasal at work. Hahaha It stuck.
  Alot of times I get called just plain "Nasal."

Looks like we may see a little additional snow tonight-latest AFD:

FIRST IN A SERIES OF CLIPPER SYSTEMS DIVING SOUTHEAST AND AT
11 AM EXTENDED FROM WESTERN INDIANA TO THE BOOTHEEL OF MISSOURI
AND BACK ACROSS NORTHERN ARKANSAS. WINDS WILL SHIFT TO NORTHWEST
AND PICK UP IN SPEED AS FRONT PASSES THROUGH THE MID STATE IN
THE EARLY AFTERNOON.

NEXT CLIPPER ON ITS HEELS AND IS POISED OVER THE HIGH PLAINS OF
NORTH AND SOUTH DAKOTA. THIS SYSTEM ALONG WITH A VERY FAST UPPER
LEVEL SHORT WAVE WILL BRING A CHANCE FOR SNOW TO MID STATE
(MEASURABLE MAINLY NORTH HALF AND PLATEAU) IN THE OVERNIGHT HOURS
TONIGHT. COULD SEE UP TO AN INCH NORTHERN AREAS AND PLATEAU. ALONG
THE KY/TN BORDER STANDS THE BEST CHANCE FOR AN INCH.

THE BOTTOM LINE IS WE ARE IN FOR A STRETCH OF COLD WEATHER
RIGHT ON THROUGH MUCH OF NEXT WEEK.

Looks like a good ole fashion clipper is coming our way:
