At last some critical discourse on weather forecasting terminology ….. I frame the weather forecast in 3 categories Environ Can = Conservative Accuweather = hysterical The truth = someplace in the middle and start examining the radar yourself.

Here they are battling it out

The snowmenclature smackdown among meteorologists started with “snowmageddon” and “snowpocalypse.” When the latest snow event – laden with flakes and whipped by heavy winds – headed for the storm-weary U.S. Northeast this week, the folks at AccuWeather Inc. warned of a coming “snowicane.”

My ma used to say cleanliness is next to Godliness. I think weather forecasting should be elevated to that spot.
