So apparently today we're going to get just dumped on with snow. Hammered, it seems.

Oddly it wasn't always that way. Let's look at the progression of this storm.

Sunday night the local meteorologists said, "flurries on Wednesday."

Monday it became 6 inches (15 cm) of snow.

Then yesterday on the radio I heard 15 inches (38 cm).

And now I just saw this on WCSH's weather page:

What the hell?

Up to 24 inches (61 cm)?!

Now, I know that this forecasting isn't a set science. At times it seems the hoodoo of snow dances coming from the bedrooms of thousands of school-aged students praying for a snow day affects the weather much more than air pressure and water vapor in the atmosphere. But shoot, to go from a light storm to two feet of snow in two days? That's a freaking blizzard!

So my question is, do I even drive in to work? Do I stay here? Are the meteorologists all on drugs?
