I understand that but I think the 24-hour news cycle has polluted people's minds. When I was growing up in the 80s and 90s there was one 3 minutes segment on the weather, now its every 5 minutes. As my father who's 80 says "Prepared to be terrified". Govenor Kathy Hochul already activated 1500 National Guards and declared a state of emergency before one flake fell. Buffalo gets a lot of nuisance snow, but when I was growing up anything under a foot wasn't newsworthy.
Sorry if Ive posted this before but its great
