Jan 22-23 Mega Snow Storm - Banter Thread

OK. This thread will be for all comments, photos, etc. not related to the IAD Snowfall Prediction Tread.  Snowfall predictions go in the other thread.

Looks like every weatherman up and down the east coast is predicting an epic/historic snow storm for us Friday/Saturday... and still 3 days away!

Wondering what they will call this one?...........Snowmageddon-II?

Weather Channel just named it "Jonas", but I imagine the local TV stations will come up with their own name..........

I wonder if they will send that Steve dude to declare it a historical storm of biblical proportions! 😂 A thousand year storm 🌨 a storm to be reckoned with of the likes we have rarely seen. 😜

Re: Jan 22-23 Mega Snow Storm - Banter Thread

The timing of this storm is awful. It's supposed to start on Friday afternoon, so I won't miss any work but my weekend will be shot.

According to Fox 5 I'm right in the bullseye.

So glad I am working from home most days.....1" of snow/ice and the world comes to a stop. I heard of one guy that took him 8 hours to go from Bethesda to Leonardtown.

Re: Jan 22-23 Mega Snow Storm - Banter Thread

I heard many 8+ hour commutes yesterday. I also went to Costco this morning to fill up on gas, like I normally do. Usually that early int he morning (before 0730) there is no line. When I got there it looked like the post-work weekday rush.


Together we'll fight the long defeat.

I'm ready.  My stepdad even offered to pay half of what I paid for this.

I figure the first stop Sunday AM will be my mom's, then some older co-workers down the street from there.  And then I'll probably be getting some paying requests.

Re: Jan 22-23 Mega Snow Storm - Banter Thread

I find these guys have been pretty accurate the past couple of years. If so, my prediction in the other thread of 25.5 is on the low side.

It's official....the Weather Channel’s Jim Cantore is in DC! We are having  an epic, historic storm of biblical proportion. One that has never been seen by human eyes. The end is near!
