How so?

Another botched weather prediction

Anonymous wrote:Ground too warm for much to stick for long

Everyone keeps saying this, but it only takes a couple hours for concrete to freeze. Enough snow will fall fast in the morning that it will accumulate.

Nothing yet here in Glover Park

Now that we have a weather forum, let's be sure to include dates in thread titles!

I think we should work on the OP not yelling at us in the thread title.

You need to work on not equating capital letters with yelling.

Ok, grandma.

AGEIST A$$HOLE

I am the OP, and did not write that insult. But I agree that weather warnings or anything that seeks to inform users of a rapidly developing situation can be capitalized. The kids write in caps locks on their message boards when they want content to get noticed as well. If anything, it's the older people who still believe capitalization means yelling.

NP. I’m middle aged. To me, all caps in a title is attention grabbing. All caps for a specific word or phrase in a post denotes emphasis. An entire post in all caps is yelling, and a decade or two ago, the elderly were prone to this. A lot of them have aged out of texting/emailing/using message boards altogether, so you barely see it anymore. Today’s elderly don’t really do it.

Wrong, You were obviously not around for the afternoon storm in Feb 2012 (maybe called snowmaggedon) where it was warm but the snow fell heavily and stuck. It took me 13 hours to get home that day. I will be sleeping in tomorrow.

DP. I was around then. I was also around in 2018 or maybe it was 2017? when that exact same scenario happened - snowed at like 2/3AM and was gone just after dawn. At least in downtown DC where the sheer volume of concrete keeps the streets and the area at a warmer core temp.

Nope, this is for reelz. Maybe not for DC or MoCo, but SE of the city for sure

Well, I'm in D.C. - so I'm still in flutters and melt mode.
