I "think" what people are upset about is you stated, maybe a week ago, you like the look AFTER Christmas......I think even Ray's "early" call yesterday was based on data at that moment, it seems 72 hours out or so, everything just goes down the shi**er quick, just my two cents
Tip school me, you and others keep talking "fast flow", seems to take its sweet ass time to get here(mean cold), then when it arrives, seems when a threat is near, doesn't have time to get a storm organized........because of the "fast flow"
