OK I understand wanting a little snow for Christmas atmosphere. Â But I don't understand saying Yippee for a big winter storm, unless you're a kid wanting a snow day, or you stand to make money from it (plowing contractor, auto body shop). Â Winter storms hurt & kill people and destroy property. Â Thousands of Omaha homes are dark and cold tonight and utility crews are working in very difficult conditions, often at risk of their own safety. Â Pray that no one else gets hurt or killed as a result of this.
Well I don't really like snow, but I have to admit that the first big winter storm of the year is always exciting. Plus my boss let us all leave two and a half hours early yesterday so we could avoid the mess later.Dark Eyes wrote:But I don't understand saying Yippee for a big winter storm, unless you're a kid wanting a snow day, or you stand to make money from it (plowing contractor, auto body shop).
Winter storm are natural. Â We should have a few every year. Â I would much rather see several winter storms and another January filled with warm dry days. Â We are in a major drought, I hope we get about 25 more inches of snow this winter!

Nothing but a fresh dusting of salt on the streets by rush hour this a.m......
At least the kids are spared from breathing the salty dust. Poor kids...no snow to go sledding on their day off!
But it started snowing right before noon, so there's still hope!

Man with Horse Head Disrupts Weather Channel Shoot in Lincoln
Man with Horse Head Disrupts Weather Channel Shoot in Lincoln
http://www.omaha.com/article/20130221/N ... in-lincolnThe Weather Channel wasn't horsing around when it sent its top correspondent, Jim Cantore, to Nebraska on Thursday to experience an oncoming snowstorm.
But somebody wearing a horse head was.
While Cantore did a live report Thursday afternoon amid the wind-whipped snow at 10th and Q Streets in Lincoln, a man wearing a costume horse head walked into the background of the shot, waving and posing.

lmao! thats awesome. Ketv/Bill Randby was doing a live "question and answer" chat thing before the storm, wednesday, and I was asking ridiculously stupid questions, which turned out to be pretty funny.
Although, the amount of Omaha morons asking him for driving trips willl probably push him into retirement soon...
