Snowicane? Can we just stop inventing words to use on those storm alert graphics?

[pbray]

Local media is calling for a snowicane tomorrow-- 12+ inches of snow, with high winds. They've been spectacularly wrong with most of their doom and gloom predictions, but just in case I've stocked up on supplies:

Beer & Wine - Check
Chocolate - Check
Pringles - Check
Tunafish - Check
Milk - Check
Salami, Cheese, Bread = Check

Bring it on!

What, no TP? Out here in Cincy, the three big staples people get when the Great White Death is imminent are TP, milk and bread.

Why people don't load up on flour so they can make bread and other goodies is beyond me...

Snow and wind! Gee, didn't they used to call that a "blizzard?"

I dont even think I can explain how badly I hate the word "snowacane" already.

You do not embrace the Nuspeak. Room 101 awaits...

So far, it looks a little sparkly-frosty out there, but it doesn't seem to be snowing. It was snowing earlier, but even that wasn't very much.
