Watched WHO weather last night. I was laughing at how cold the forecast was. What a joke. Wasn’t any zero or below temps at that time.

I deeply regret this post. I indeed made him help me take everything down today. And he then decided to meticulously organize all the lights. Sort all the extra bulbs. Label the boxes by year. We have many of the same kind. And probably 50-75 in total. If you think I am the type of woman to put the same strand back in the box it came from every year.....well I guess you may be my husband who seems to have sent his brain on sabbatical. Because he did this during the time I arrived home with hungry children, while I made dinner and entertained them until bedtime. Still going.
I am confident that predictions of 6-9 inches tonight will *absolutely* be a bust.
The station doesn’t buy it for you or you sweat it all off over the forecast? I would never send my husband to buy makeup, he would come home with batteries and duct tape
All on me. I even put it on too! Don't need me looking like a butterball, greasy face!
Get some setting powder! Ah, there are women anchors I'm sure, they'd tell you all this.
I would probably do better with the forecast than the makeup under those lights, but I am old enough that anything but tinted moisturizer and light mascara is just going to make matters worse. You do a good job at both, have tuned in for this storm.
I feel like I recall a storm like this not long ago that started off above freezing, took awhile for the ground to cool down, and had people here crying “bust”… only for several more inches of snow to materialize overnight.
Go to sleep everyone. More snow on the way.

My math may not be so good since my last math class was 42 years ago, but if I’m not wrong, this says nearly 13 1/2 inches for Cedar Rapids. That can’t be right. I added wrong, didn’t I?

Me when the NWS says we’re in for a foot of snow followed by wind and below-zero temperatures on the way
That's usually how it goes but I live out in the sticks. We lost power twice in December and a few times this summer. Generally less than an hour but under bad conditions it can be a couple days out here.
So, you guys aren't all gonna die? Guess I'll cancel the vigil I was planning for you all.

Can't wait to go into work tomorrow and see all the cars in the ditch along Riverside & Dayton.
