The last bit with him hopping up and down on the edge really punctuates it.

Apparently we could get hit by a fairly large storm Tuesday?

Fire watch warning? Welcome to every day in SoCal.

i guess a fire watch for me would be like people in la getting a bomb threat

Sgt PSN · February 18, 2011, 01:12:33 PM

Snow would probably be the better analogy.

Saw that too IGY, and I've never seen one before. Kinda surprising considering everything is still soaking wet.

cept we dont get much snow...bomb threats on the other hand happen almost weekly...and snow certainly isnt a regional thing here

There was a pretty substantial brush fire at the intersection of MD-100 and I-97 today.

MDS · February 18, 2011, 06:43:32 PM

So that Weatherboy Weather guy posted this map today:

and then added this 6 hours later:

QuoteA winter storm responsible for heavy snow in the midwest will move to the east coast tonight, bringing snow from Michigan to New York. A second storm associated with the first will pass through the region bringing more snow to the region tomorrow night into Tuesday morning. The snow total map posted earlier today is for snow totals from now through Monday night; additional snow is likely beyond this period. The second system may bring an additional 4-8" of snow above/beyond the snow totals posted on this map for portions of southeastern PA and the southern half of NJ.
