Hey look, it's the 21st of January and we finally got some snow. Of course, the National Weather Service here are a bunch of pansies: There's currently a Severe Weather Alert for NoVA because we're going to get... wait for it... two inches of snow.
That's right: Stock up on non-perishables, gas up the generator, and clean and load the guns -- we're getting a dusting and by god you never know what will happen then. Southerners are such a bunch of pussies.
Sadly, I've heard the sirens go past the apartment twice in the four hours I've been awake, so apparently receiving a little snow really is a call for panic 'round these parts. I can't imagine what would happen if we got the kind of weather that would close the schools back home -- would the goevernor declare a state of emergency for 0°F? Call in the National Guard for a half a foot of snow?
