  1. That max forecast graphic has been updated. While the Hereford Zone isn't quite so Hereford-y any more, it bumps DC's max potential to 8 inches.

  2. Expecting 2-4 inches here in Ohio. Main weather story is actually temperatures dropping into the teens for highs after the storm.

    1. Erased my four-day weekend post because I forgot that it was Monday and the kiddies went to school today.

      Typical requests are dinosaurs and whales. Someone asked for JFK and the kids in the store in charge of such artwork* were all "Who?" There was a request for Trump but I don't think that one was honored.

      One customer tried "Make a racist joke on the box" but didn't get anything. That kid was already known as an asshole (I regret not shouting "HERE'S YOUR CONDOM BACK, SIR!" loudly enough for his parents to hear when he tried to make his cute little "Keep the tip" joke, trying it inside the twenty singles he gave me for a $19.xx order, but I'm betting that particular asshole didn't fall far from the asshole tree).

      As for the other joke requests, Mini-Me has absolutely terrible taste in puns. Hopefully it will disabuse Our Valued Customers from asking for jokes in the future.

      *You have no idea how easily amused teenaged girls are! "Hey, I wanna try folding boxes!"

      1. Heh, didn't even notice that.

        When did this become A Thing? I feel desperately un-Hep.

        I'm tempted to request "a squid eating dough in a polyethene bag" from my local delivery, but I like them so I won't.

  3. Somewhere near 39.0N, 76.5W, Day 50 of the Winter of my Discontent

    No snow falling outside my cave, no accumulation, just an apparent dampness to exposed surfaces.

    1. 36 F

      It's barely drizzling out, but it's snowing hard north and west of Mobtown, so the MD State Government has declared Liberal Leave is in effect so terrified employees don't have to drive. An unalloyed Good Thing.
