And yes … say “precipitation is presently predicted” five teams really fast if you’re bored.

Too much sports, not enough adderall.
spell check is not Sic Willie’s friend.
teams is spelled correctly!
“teams is spelled correctly!”
Correct.
There is no ‘I” in team.
There is, however, a “me’.
BTW.. Can you post TBG’s rules? I keep seeing the references… maybe you could get FITS to post them on the margin or something.

Is there a fine line between being a “journalist”(lulz), and a chronic complainer?
Forecasting ice as far east as Hwy 17 now.
“Pax?” What gives you the impression this snow storm had a name? Since when have snow events EVER had names? Hurricanes and typhoons have names, given to them by the appropriate government agency. Snow storms do NOT have names. The National Weather Service (NWS) hasn’t named the snow, nor has the National Oceanographic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Neither the NWS, NOAA, nor anyone I know is referring to this weather system as “Pax.”
But yes, in what can only be described as a shameless, pretentious publicity stunt, The Weather Channel taken it upon themselves to start naming every snow event that comes along, and in the process they have become a bit of a laughingstock. Who knows? Maybe this summer, when things have started quieting down, they’ll start naming HEAT WAVES!
It makes you wonder how we ever survived the old days when snow was just called SNOW, not given a cute name by The Weather Channel, which is owned by NBC and not the government. Is it REALLY necessary to pander to their sense of self-importance?
It’s like deja vu, all over again.

PEACE!
I tend to agree but television media would not hype it if South Carolinians wern’t such “sheeple” at the mention of a single snowflake.
I thought South Carolinians prided themselves as being independent types.
Politically and socially, South Carolinians are the biggest example of “sheeple in the entire United States.
Way to highlight one of the most important questions of our age!
