I'd call it more like 2 inches.
Y'know, meteorologists irritate the crap out of me. They are rarely--if ever--right about how much snow we'll get. Especially when they start getting into the double digits.
I very rarely pay attention to them at all when it comes to severe weather. If they tell me it's going to be 79*F out I'll believe them. If they tell me I can expect thunderstorms this evening, I'll believe them.
But when they tell me we're getting 12 inches of snow in any amount of time under 48 hours, I want to beat them over the head with the frying pan I use on Stefan.
Because it sends the entire state into SHOCK MODE. As in, "OH MY GOD, TWELVE INCHES?! WE'RE GOING TO BE BARRICADED INTO OUR HOMES!!!!"
Did I mention we were advised to not leave our homes after 4pm and continue the state of "no travel" until this evening. *Hysterical laughter* The snow didn't even start until after midnight. The rain didn't even start until after 6pm.
THIS is the current state of our snowfall.
NOT EVEN ENOUGH TO COVER OUR PARKING LOT.
I'm too lazy to go out and get a better picture for you. I'm also in my robe and I also need to attempt getting ready for church.
I just thought I'd let you all know that meteorologists never know what's going to happen in Nebraska.
I'd rather them tell me 12 inches and only get 2... Then tell me we're getting 2 and get 12 though... I guess there is always a silver lining.
