After reading all of this I still can't quite tell if you are 100% serious Raven. If you would like a good friend of mine is a weather man for Fox25 in Boston. A.J. for those that know the station. I will email him and see what he thinks if you like.

The butterfly effect negates the volcano's blowing up.I think that if a fly farts in China the wind direction is changed and Iran gets wiped of the face of the Earth by a sandstorm.

Raven,
you are starting rumors!

www.weather.com
10:45 am ET
A few paths to choose from: Well, by now you've heard about the potential for a big winter storm. The hype machine is already in full-effect by some. Let's take a more rational look at the storm.

The one factor everyone needs to remember is that the potential winter storm is still 3 to 4 days away. Computer weather models have a tendency to flip-flop between different forecast scenarios from one model run to another.

A model run, by the way, is the time when a computer program produces a possible future weather scenario given the atmospheric conditions at the present time. Generally speaking, this is done about 2 to 4 times a day (a few weather models, however, are run every 2 to 3 hours).

So with that information in hand, it's quite difficult to hang your hat on a definitive forecast for this winter storm. The one thing we can say for certain is that there will be a winter storm over the eastern third of the country beginning on Monday and through all of Tuesday.

Computer weather models have been depicting two different storm tracks which you can see below:


Possible storm tracks

The interior track (Georgia to western Pennsylvania) will spell out very heavy snow (and in some cases possible blizzard conditions) for the the Appalachians and into western Pennsylvania and western New York. Heavy rain would fall along the East Coast including the I-95 corridor.

The more eastern track (Georgia to New Jersey/Long Island) would result in a heavy snowfall for locations east of the Appalachians including the big cities of the Northeastern I-95 corridor.

Models are currently trending toward the more eastern track but the finer details remain up in the air including the intensity of the storm and the speed of movement.

Keep it here at weather.com and The Weather Channel as we continue to fine-tune the forecast today and during the weekend.

Finally, we have one more thing to mention. In terms of destruction and costliness, this storm will come nowhere even close to the historic ice storm which struck Oklahoma, Missouri, Arkansas and Kentucky. In fact, there will be little to no ice associated with this storm. It will be your classic winter storm complete with heavy snow, high winds, and cold temperatures.

I'd "bury my head in the sand", but I can't find my shovel after the last storm!!!!

In any case, it NEVER hurts to be prepared for "disaster", regardless of the scale of the event.
My family jokes that I've bought "too much" *____*(fill in the blank).
But who do they turn to when they run out?

Even just the basic amenities make life more comfortable when the power goes out.

Ya know, the more equipment the meteorologists get, the less reliable the predictions are.

I'd really like to have a job where I only had to be correct 50% of the time and still collect a paycheck...

Unfortunately, I have the perfect face for radio -

I'll tell ya right now, Art Lake* would have already had the whole damned thing figured out by now...he's just a little tough to contact these days...

Hell, even Bunny North* could've done it...

* Old dead weather people for you kids out there.

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

I thought the shovel was not invented yet only the stone hammer and clovis point.

Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.
