~~trying to reason with hurricane season~~

[Donovan]

Here where I am I always get "blizzard phone calls" from family members who watch the Weather Channel and they always show a snowstorm story with that one poor fool whose house gets covered to the chimney. You'd think that guy would move away or something. But meanwhile, my family thinks I'm up to my chestnuts in frozen tundra so I get panicked messages "hey you okay?" from all the southerners who think subzero is anything below freezing. Hell, I don't even bother to throw on a coat for a blizzard if I'm only going to the mailbox or my car...

This storm is being called Frankenstorm for us because it has potential to mix with another oncoming pattern from the west. So six straight days of rain basically. And our weather guys are dying for it to get cold enough to use the "B"word. They got screwed out of it last year.
