You know you're screwed when....

... the Weather Channel sends a reporter to your city to report on the weather!!

I was flipping through the channels and I see Mike Seidel standing in a blustery Milwaukee talking about how we are going to get $#@%ed by a blizzard later tonight. Great.

 

Could be worse. Could be the Gabriel of weather, Jim Cantore.

 

We're in a tornado watch right now. ;D (I loves to chase tornadoes).

In three hours we'll be in a blizzard watch.

The tornado watch expires as 6 p.m. tonight, while the blizzard watch goes until 6 a.m. tomorrow. I think the National Weather Service is in CYA mode when they have two watches of these sorts overlap each other by three hours.

 

They've been in my town looking for tornadoes before, which doesn't lend itself to many secure feelings.

 

I'd glady sacrifice some nice weather is it meant Stephanie Abrams got out from behind the desk and back in the field, preferably in NE Ohio.

 

You think you got it bad, webby?

In Colorado, white-out conditions were so bad they had a 35-vehicle wreck just east of Denver on I-70.

Here's I-70 at E-470 (the airport access road, I think), near where the wreck happened:

 

My wife's sister lives in NW Kansas, and in the last 24 hours, they've been under a tornado watch and a blizzard watch.

 

More than a foot of snow here, windy and blowing white out conditions. Fortunately I don't have to go to the gym today after digging out.

 

I feel like I'm in that movie, "The Day After Tomorrow."

 

I'm stuck in a gym, as I've been for the last four-plus days, with an unnamed SportsJournalists.commer covering what is now the 33rd basketball game of 36...

anyone want to trade?

 

Yeah, you are about to get fucked. Make sure you stock up on canned goods.
