Not a fan. Gives these storms too much credit. Cold and blowng snow Sometimes deep? Been happening for millenia in these latitudes. It's called 'winter'.

I hate it but not as much as when the weather guy rolls up his sleeves and loosens his tie on air as if he has really been doing something other than looking at screens with pictures and numbers the entire time.
