School districts anymore plan for snow days and allot a certain number just in case. If none have been used (like none were in December) schools are more willing to call it early because if they aren’t used they are wasted. PLUS even though it’s not much, we all know how awful tomorrow’s commute is going to be. Nebraska drivers lose their minds and common sense in inclement weather.

I was thinking that exact same thing. If OPS had used a bunch of days already, than I feel like they would have held off on their decision. They called at 430 which is pretty early for them to call. A snowday tomorrow seems questionable at best, especially given model trends all day. Maybe they're more worried about the ice than I am. 

This will probably end up being a bad rap for weather forecasters as I am sure a lot of the parents and kids assume we're getting a foot of snow now and when we end up with 1/2" and the roads not bad, they'll all be pissed that the weathermen got it wrong :rolleyes:

Too many thin-skinned people who get all butt-hurt and cant take a joke, and too many people messing with said people when a storm doesn't go exactly the way the models show a few days out.  It's like

I also want to go on the record and say that all those posts last night attacking me and wishing death on me were a disgrace.   I playfully joke around with people and make pleasant satirical comments

Oh OK.. Can't wait to read your complaints if that happens... If this storm does hit you then maybe you won't hit the board with same posts the next time you get missed.

For schools to close tomorrow is an absolute joke and embarrassment to our community here. An inch or two of snow warrants closing? When I was younger it was 6 or more inches.

Just heard on the radio that police are no longer responding to non-injury accidents lol. It’s 47 and roads are dry.

This is what happens when a completely uncertain storm is overhyped by the media. I didn't release my totals till around noon today for that reason.

The band is almost stalled out in NW Nebraska. Whoever gets under that thing when it's 100% snow in a bit is gonna see some rockin' rates for about 30 minutes. In some areas it looks like a classic Spring squall line.

That band will fall apart and the new one will form. The question is where

Not trying to sound like a "sunshine pumper," but radar trends are way different from model trends. If it continues being slow, it'd allow the second band to set up sooner and MAYBE we have a shot at another inch from what models are showing.

I'll write you a note for a small fee...

 

Dear Schoolmaster:

 

Please excuse Lincoln from class as he could not make it through the inch of snow that fell at his house.

 

Regards,

Tabitha

 

ooh...that has just the perfect tone of sarcasm with contempt. I like it!

23-24 seasonal snow total: 17.8" (as of 3/9/24)

I was going to add:

 

Also; remember that Mr. Lnk Weather resides at a very high altitude compared to the rest of the city; a full 5 feet above the Airport.  Consequently, the orographic enhancement at his house made travel through the extra dusting quite simply impossible.

 

Regards,

Tabitha

Gonna be hilarious when we wont have any snow on the ground and all schools will be shut down LOL

Idk, I thought the day last year that we had no school when it was sunny and 40 out was funnier. And there was no snow or ice.

Welp, it's official. The area of rain that the main band will collide with and produce the monster band of snow is in Lincoln moving East. Well ahead of schedule too. May even see a more Southeast trend. RIP >1" snow chances.

      Nix is a Zach Wilson 2.0. That being said he is going to a situation with a great head coach. Tough division, but he could have a great future in Denver! We will be wishing him well. I think you could make a strong case for every one of these first round QB s being a bust. Williams for obvious reasons, he might break a nail and pull himself out of the game. Drake Maye is Trubisky 2.0. McCarthy just isn’t an NFL level QB. Penix may never even play. Well before seems a bit of a stretch. I was mildly surprised Nix went 12th as literally no mock drafts had him going that high. Penix to the falcons was also a shock, they could have traded back to the 2nd round to get him. Not sure why they would do that when they have Cousins, unless they don’t trust his health.

      Some GFS goofiness on the 12Z run. At least the trend is favorable and moving away from solid troughing for the next 2 weeks straight.

      It was probably the biggest reach of the first round. ESPN rated it a “major reach.” Honestly it was shocking and people may lose their jobs over this.

      I don’t care what a kangaroo court says. Cohen was not jailed for doing what Trump is accused of. And that’s not even the case the Supreme Court is hearing arguments about. With a straight face you can tell me these prosecutions aren’t political? If you believe that then don’t complain when Trump gets elected and throws all of y’all in jail.
