Snow-Meh-Geddon

So they predicted 7-8 inches of snow today.

In reality we didn't get nearly that much, maybe 3-4 inches tops.

Still it is wet packing snow that has fouled the roads enough that people are being asked to stay the heck offa them until they're cleared, which is good advice.

Clearly the prediction was the work of a female meteorologist.

I can't blame her though for the overshoot on the prediction, it's really not her fault.

After all, she's been told for years that this (put your thumb and forefinger close together for a minute and hold it up in front of your face) is eight inches, so it's easy to see how she got to that overage on the estimate for the snowfall.
