Possible huge snowstorm Tuesday

Her face is probably the most obstructed, so I'll gladly leave the bag on the floor for now.
We had an unusually warm Winter. Unless temperatures crash and we get two feet of snow on Tuesday this will be one of the warmest, if not the warmest Winter on record.
Has it been REALLY that bad?
And has been the warmest ever?! Really? How about a few hundred years ago? What was it like then?
It's been a brutal couple of months in Central Florida. Lows in the 40s, highs in the 60s. Actually had to run the heat for 20 minutes this morning. BRRRR.
Yes, but you also have 20 foot snakes and spiders the size of dinner plates hiding in your bathrooms down there.
MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY... MODELS SUGGEST A STORM SYSTEM MAY IMPACT THE
REGION AROUND THE TUE/WED TIMEFRAME. THIS IS A LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST
ON THIS SYSTEM AS ECM...GFS AND GEM SHOW SIGNIFICANT RUN TO RUN VARIANCE ON
STRENGTH AND TRACK ALTHOUGH THEY HAVE ALL APPEAR TO HAVE TRENDED A BIT MORE
NORTHERLY WITH TRACK. COLDER AIR SPILLING SOUTH WITH CANADIAN HIGH WOULD
SERVE TO ENHANCE THE LOW TO MID LEVEL BAROCLINIC ZONE... WHICH ALONG WITH
COUPLED UPPER JET STRUCTURE SUGGESTED BY GFS AND ECM WOULD LEND SUPPORT
FOR STRENGTHENING SYSTEM AS IT SHIFTS FROM THE MIDWEST INTO THE OHIO VALLEY
TUE-WED. HAVING SAID THAT OPERATIONAL GFS IS MUCH STRONGER THAN ENSEMBLE MEAN
WHICH DEPICTS WEAKER OPEN WAVE. STRENGTH OF SYSTEM WILL HAVE IMPACTS ON
PRECIP AMOUNTS AS STRONGER SYSTEM WOULD YIELD STRONGER SOUTHERLY FLOW FROM THE
GULF OF MEXICO LEADING TO PLENTIFUL MOISTURE. ALSO IMPACTED BY STRENGTH WILL
BE STORM TRACK AND ULTIMATELY PRECIP TYPE... WHICH COULD BE EITHER RAIN OR SNOW
AND CANT EVEN RULE OUT ISOLD THUNDER DEPENDING ON THE TRACK.
THE MAIN TAKEAWAY IS WE CONTINUE TO WATCH THE POSSIBILITY FOR A STORM SYSTEM
TO IMPACT THE MIDWEST IN TUE-WED TIMEFRAME WITH EITHER RAIN OR SNOW.
HOWEVER... BECAUSE OF THE LARGE MODEL RUN TO RUN VARIANCE SPECIFIC DETAILS AND
IMPACTS ARE UNCERTAIN AND TOO DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE ATTIM... BUT AGAIN THE
TUE-WED TIMEFRAME WILL BE THE PERIOD TO WATCH IN THE COMING DAYS. OTHERWISE...
DUE TO THE MODEL VARIANCES WITH SYSTEM HAVE CAPPED THE POPS IN CHANCE FOR TUE-TUE
NGT.

I haven't seen any other stations forecasting a heavy snowstorm next week. I guess we'll have to wait and see.
Nobody is going to say it's due to Global Warming. Only dipshits such as yourself want to equate cold days in the summer to the myth of Global Warming. Nobody wants to come down to your level of idiot
Iowa girls state bb tournament starts next week. Right on time for a snowstorm.
The original prediction was VERY LIKELY for 3-6", but someone simply left the hyphen out.....
Most of February and parts of January have been in the 50s to 70s out here. Expecting 68 tomorrow.
Snow Problemo!
Red, Teal, Pink, Light Blue, Black, Blue
Don't over think it guys, they're color coded. It doesn't get any easier.
Off on a tangent - my favorite Smithereens song. (And it appears the storm will miss central Iowa at this point.)
Cool! My grandmother was from the UP (Ishpeming) before moving 'southeast' to Wolverine (of all places).
