Richter

This storm was proof of why I need the HORRIBLE RICHTERRAN  LAND CRUISER.  Laughter and 4wd got me farther in snow than swearing and shovelling.

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:

Okay, about the storm, someone help me out here, when did they start naming fucking snow storms?  I mean, yeah, Nemo...it was cute, aside from the barrage of unfunny "OH HAI LOOK I FOUND NEMO" Facebook posts from those bankrupt of creativity.  Is this a new thing?

I vaguely remember hearing on some weather channel blurb that this year they decided to start naming snow storms for some reason. I don't think they said why, or if they did I wasn't paying attention. My guess is that people have nothing better to do with their time and to allow for stupid facebook jokes

weather channel named it, but the US weather bureau and the world meteorological organization is torqued about that, because they have the mandate from god to name storms or something.  i heard a quote from one of them on NPR saying that they are afraid people will thing that the snow storms are actually hurricanes.  :lol:

This was the end of my driveway last Saturday morning:



Long Island is not exactly well-prepared for this amount of snow. No plows came through until Monday, and there's a lot of elderly people in my neighborhood who can't shovel themselves out.

I also learned the hard way apparently I still get pretty asthma-y when exerting myself in the cold. An hour of shoveling left me wheezing for breath for the next 12 hours. :x  Walked my ass to the pharmacy to pick up some Mucinex so I could function.

No real disasters for me though. Power and Internet actually stayed on for me, probably because Sandy already tore down all the trees.

A Nor'Easter is pretty much a cold-fed hurricane, and they can be just a destructive. But naming a clipper that swoops over the snow belt is dumb.

The pro to naming is record keeping. Because "Blizzard of 2013" could be a number of large storms from the Rockies to New England.

The con is that it's wicked dumb, and has already caused confusion that they're hurricanes up here. Someone wanted to know how we went from Sandy to Nemo without having a Z storm.

Don't worry.
as the storms continue to get worse and more frequent, those people that are confused will get naturally weeded out in the destruction.

Once I realized they were talking about the snow storm and not some regular hurricane happening nowhere near here, I was wondering where A-M went.
