Whether it's still true or not I don't know, but it used to be in New York you would take your driver's license road test on the streets of New York, whereas in New Jersey you'd take your test in a parking lot. Hence the reputation for Jersey drivers to be bad. Like I said, whether that's still true or not, I don't know.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4086349103307829625.post-9234808024526004112011-01-09T14:37:25.266-05:002011-01-09T14:37:25.266-05:004-6 inches is cool.

I used to live in Colorado where snow falls was measured in feet. I recently visited my old stomping grounds. And when snow is predicted, the people all rush out to Wal-Mart, and Safeway to stock up on the basics. People are panicked about road conditions, and all are worried about north eastern drivers visiting the area, trying to show off their winter driving skills.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4086349103307829625.post-78324147837332184772011-01-09T01:02:32.403-05:002011-01-09T01:02:32.403-05:00HEHE..to the poster that said 200 wrecks and jerse...HEHE..to the poster that said 200 wrecks and jersey tags...very true.

You do realize ...Anon 12:53 - You're a nitwit. You do realize that meteorology is an inexact science, right? You see, what they do is *forecast* what the weather will be like in a certain amount of time.<br /><br />Don't know what "forecast" means? Well, I'll spell it out for you - it's a *prediction*. What's a prediction? Well, that's an educated guess.<br /><br />When making an educated guess (I'll use the lowest common denominator for you), one will use models of past behavior to determine what will happen in a few days' time. Something unexpected can always happen, hence the Weather Guy's disclaimer. If he didn't put it on there, some knuckledragger like yourself would cry foul and say, "but, but, but, YOU said it was gonna snow!!!"<br /><br />So, why mention the weather? Well, it got a genius like you who apparently knows better than to accept a forecast to click on the blog. I think it's predicted to give the populace an idea of what to expect might happen. I, for one, am grateful for their work in this field, even if they aren't right in their educated guesses (still looking out for you, slick) 100% of the time.Dr. Jane Lubchencohttp://www.noaa.govnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4086349103307829625.post-4606603628489515942011-01-08T12:53:34.764-05:002011-01-08T12:53:34.764-05:00HAHA.

Commuters will pretend the pavement is dry. They'll drive 60 mph down I-77 and I-485, and be talking and texting on their mobile devices like always. They'll still believe they can stop on a dime and drive as they usually do, even though they won't even be able to see the edges of the road.<br /><br />Same old story. I predict 200 wrecks in Charlotte and on area roads by Tuesday.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
