looks like Irwin was correct

Every time I went to the AMC cinema for the past four or five days, Irwin has talked to me about snow in Savannah.

Every time he did, I would protest that we would not be getting snow, not at 32 N latitude.

Nope, nope, nope.

Now, it turns out I was mistaken.

If Pat Prokop says snow will be falling, then snow will definitely fall.

 

The retired meteorologist isn't the only source for that news, of course.

Chatham Emergency Management Agency posted this on fb at 3 PM.

"CEMA Alert:

Hallie of Louisiana - my sil's sil - tried to inject a note of humor, Cajun style.

Sneaux Bingeaux just may be a game I'd play, too, especially if Thibodeau and Boudreau were sitting in at the table.

I even already have several squares I could fill!

I have milk, I have bread, I'm dripping those faucets, my snacks are ready to be eaten up, and I have several cans of Progresso Chicken & Sausage Gumbo in the pantry.

Oh, yes, and the schools will be closed!

That gives me a lucky seven squares, including the free space.

Not a bingeaux yet, but getting there.

 

I plan to adopt Patrick Young's philosophy, too.

"If you choose

not to find joy

in the snow

You will have

less joy in your life

but still

the same amount of snow."

 

That sounds a lot like that Tibetan proverb I like about worry. 

"If the problem can't be solved, 

there's no use worrying about it.

If it can be solved,

worrying will do no good."

Last time I checked, I had no control over the weather.

I still do not have any control over the weather.

I only have control over my response to the weather.

That's why I watch the WSAV Weather Song, so I can stay in tune.
