Minny_Weather Posted February 9, 2018 Report Share Posted February 9, 2018 Waterloo to us is as Norfolk is to you.We had our second lowest season snowfall on record last season, and Norfolk finished well above average. Rather freakin' impressive for 92 miles as the crow flies. It was over a 30" difference. And people wonder why I have a vocal anti-Norfolk bias.

CentralNebWeather Posted February 9, 2018 Report Share Posted February 9, 2018 I had a high school classmate that has taught in Norfolk for many years. He has told me on more than one occasion that they just seem to be in the “sweet spot” for snow in Nebraska. They get it from all directions and he hates snow.

That s**t is just run down at worst and its a good neighborhood in Memphis.If you ever see anyone standing by the tracks near 33rd and Cornhusker at around 8-9ish at night, that's me. I video call my friends by the tracks there and I park in the parking lot there some nights. Don't ask why. Has to do with my other hobby. That's a "bad" neighborhood, and I'm more worried about cops driving by and thinking I'm a meth head than people stabbing me. Actually, I have been talked to by a cop who thought I was a burglar there once. That was entertaining. 1 Quote Formerly *ahem*: LNK_Weather, TOL_Weather, FAR_Weather, MSP_Weather, IMoveALot_Weather.

Minny_Weather Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 Im guessing its picking up low quality meth d**n how did you guess? whats your other hobby? My actual other hobby is railfanning. Basically I take pictures and video of trains. I have a flickr, Instagram, and YouTube page dedicated to it. It's fun cuz I feel like I can tie weather into it too. A big reason why I'm a snow fan is cuz it really beefs up shots. Nothing is worse than bare ground and barer trees in the Winter for shots. Here's one I took yesterday near Yutan. 3 Quote Formerly *ahem*: LNK_Weather, TOL_Weather, FAR_Weather, MSP_Weather, IMoveALot_Weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to laugh about it a little bit but it's getting really difficult to. There has to be a lot of great winters coming in the future for all the crap and near misses I've seen since 2011-12.
