Atomixwx Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Nerd alert! I have as well - the other James Spann coverage I watch a lot is from March 1993. Birmingham got 14" from the Superstorm. There's some level of truth there. I suck at TV. My attention span is minimal at-best and very little interests me outside of sporting events. I couldn't care less about Squid Olympics or Stranger Games or whatever, so when I'm working, I "listenwatch" weather documentaries (Lifetime TV movie about Hurricane Andrew), storm coverage for various locations, EAS Disaster scenario videos, etc. I also tend to watch those documents on their anniversaries. The other day I was watching Ryan Hall on my TV in the living room and my 10-month-old was in his walker, strolled in the room, saw the TV and watched. Hooked another one.

Sent from my motorola edge 5G UW (2021) using Tapatalk I'm very much the same. My TV package includes 250 or so channels, of which I don't think I've ever watched about 240. I spend hours watching old Weather Channel videos of blizzards, 'canes, 'nados, etc. I'm not sure if I'm more obsessed with sports or weather. I can't get enough of either. Oh, and House. Gregory House. Dude is my hero. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In your defense, 5 of the last 6 met winters at MDT have not exactly been great with snowfall totals. This is Dec - Feb. So doubt it is you. :-). 1 great, 2 not too shabby, and 3 terrible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Geez Roger Smith in the NYC forum punted all of January and said not a chance until Feb 4-5. And that is likely very short before another warmup. That’s bad. NYC night set the record for most consecutive days without snowfall in Central Park. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought...I saw that Walt Drag said the same thing? Or maybe Rog said it in Walt's thread? Roger Smith punting snow is akin to Blizz punting snow. Now, the sh*t's getting real.

Blizz is never punting IMO. 4th and 24 on his own 3 and he is still going for it. Hope for a pass interference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
