another reason why I dont trust the forecasters half the time..... I mean come on weather channel! This is your purpose! To predict!

could someone define what significant means exactly? LOL

Get your shovel haha

I'm only 33 and grew up in NJ and have shoveled/plowed/ and snow blown 18 inches of partly cloudy more times then I can remember..... I never believe them.. I go with my knees, if the left one throbs and swells up we are getting something wet on the ground either snow or rain......

GeneralDon7 · 02-05-2010, 11:06 PM

Wow yea id call that significant, there calling for 20 to 30 inches for us and were so far up to 6

YAR1S · 02-05-2010, 11:06 PM

It means your car will look significantly white.

Your car looks good in white.

I don't mind the snow we get. However, I do mind the salt that is put on the roads. I worry about the long term effect it does to the car.

I look at weather.com, but they disappoint me every time. They say it's suppose to rain on certain days, but it doesn't, and vice-versa.

I see now. Yeah we are definitely spoiled here in California. The worst I've ever seen in my life is hail attempting to form and the rain turning to more of a slushee than really hail so I didn't know anything about this snow stuff...
