THUNDER SNOW-what the heck is Thunder Snow? The weather men have been using this buzzword all weak and everytime they say it, their eyes flutter and they foam at the mouth. It must be something special, THUNDER SNOW. Wow I felt a tinge in my toes when I said it. Yes we are expecting THUNDER SNOW by morning and from 3 to 8 inches of the THUNDER SNOW should accumulate. I think it means that there will be THUNDER while it is SNOWING and it seems this is a rare occurrence. I like the weather prognosticator profession. Where else can you tell something one day and then tell something completely different the very next day and act like it is the first time you said anything about it and everyone believes you and thanks you. You are treated like a god because you brought a "much needed rain" or a "beautiful weekend" to spend out of doors. RICK the weatherman said it and it becomes LAW. RICK SAID IT and I know he wouldn't lie to me so in the morning I will see THUNDER SNOW and I will thank him for he is a weather man.

Cool term! Must be an Okie thing :-) We get "Sun Snow" sometimes; and I learned another new weather term the other day from Mew's girlfriend, it's called a "Rain Shadow." Evidently some areas in a place of heavy rainfall seem to escape the precipitation of their surroundings and are referred to by the locals in the NE coastal regions as Rain Shadows :-)
