But that’s not JUST any crow that you’re getting there, Brent. Its 100% AMERICAN crow! There is a difference. I had it back in MAR 2001, and Ill tell ya it was great. We reserve that kind of crow for the BIGGEST BUSTS.

In the sprit of the Christmas season, let's cut Brent some slack. I am still running to the window every 10 minutes and still can't believe the scene in my front yard. In some ways I think I am dreaming and I might wake up and it being another 60-70 degree Christmas down here.

Oh it was great alright back in March 2001. Try explaining to the entire school why there wasn't two feet of snow and no school for a week... :eek: :eek:

I ate crow for a month...

What a amazing end to 2004 (so far with another week to go) After all the Hurricanes, and other stuff. who would have thought that Houston would have it's first White Christmas in recorded history.

I dunno. He's been whining and being down-right uncharitable to anyone who might stand a chance of frozen precip since last weekend. It's starting to get old. (sorry that's the truth, Brent).

I'm sorry ya'll..I haven't seen decent snow in about as long as he has. Still, I'm THRILLED that anyone (ie, S/SE Texas) who doesn't normally see snow finally gets a WHITE CHRISTMAS. :D

Our turn is coming...I can feel it in my creaky bones (getting old...will be 42 on the 29th).

MERRY CHRISTMAS....and especially to all those enjoying SNOW tonight.

Jeny

Hey wxguy25, a few days ago when you started this thread....

http://www.storm2k.org/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=54307


Let's be real honest about this.
I thought you were stark raving MAD. I thought, wth, is wxguy25 doing, getting all these people all super excited over something that would probably NEVER EVER realistically happen in their entire lifetimes?

I check on about 100 messageboard a day because I am so clinically obsessed with web-based messageboards, and I was just passing through Storm2K shall we say, and I saw that thread

http://www.storm2k.org/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=54307

and I could not believe what I was reading!

The MODELS were way off, but wxguy25 was right on the money!
You gotta know when its gonna snow in Texas (or the Mid Atlantic, for that matter).........Who ya gonna call?

Wxguy25's Da Man!!!!!!!!!! Bring on your BAAD forecasts!!!

Hey, if you ever see the potential for a 36 inch snow in NE Virginia, please, don't hesitate to start a thread like,

HEY JEB, YOU BETTER GET READY FOR THE 36-INCH SNOW JEBWALK OF YOUR LIFE!!!

or something to that effect. 'Cuz I WILL jump IMMEDIATELY on the WXGUY25 TRAIN and it will be one heck of a RIDE!!!!

(if I don't break my back from shoveling all that snow LOL!)


-Jeb!!!!!!!!! BRING IT!!! BRING IT!!!!

Yeah well I ate it all through the summer, but my warm winter forecast in 2001-02 (which early on was scoffed at by SOME of my colleagues) allowed for me to get a little bit of redemption.

MAR 2001 is by a WIDE MARGIN the most severe bust of my career to up to this point.

Sure I joke about it now, on a personal level its sort of a sensitive issue w/ me for obvious reasons.

I wish SO badly that I could be in Victoria Texas tonight, I'd be out conducting such a cool 9.2 mile jebwalk, blasting Rocky IV songs on my headphones with a shovel in my right hand, watching the huge snowflakes blow by the brilliant streetlights!!!

WOW 10 INCHES OF SNOW!!! MAYBE EVEN 12!!!!!

Dang it I'm so darn JEALOUS!!!!!!!

Well I might have been one of the first to see it coming, and i appreciate the enthusiasm but this is actually a BUST for me. I never forecasted anything over 2" in the regions which tonight are getting 6-12"
