That's because they're terrible forecasters. They're going off a model that's showing way too much moisture, I highly doubt anyone beats a foot. 6-10" from a line extending from Dayton to Mansfield to Akron, 3-6" with slush involved for places like Dayton and Columbus and major icing for Cincy

Has any so-called science come less far in our lifetimes than meteorology?

I would disagree, it's came extremely far, maybe further than any earth science. In 40 years we've developed a highly technological national weather service, with high resolution models predicting on a 3D scale exact weather conditions 48 hours out and radar that is insane

Exact conditions? 6-10 inches of snow is not exact conditions, it's scarcely better than throwing darts.

6-10 inches in a situation where you could go to five different weather service providers and get five different predictions for exactly what will happen.

Weather.com has my area (about 5 miles east of Dayton) getting 2-6 inches. The local weather (WHIO, said) is still predicting 6-10". So we're going to get anywhere from 2-10 inches, apparently.
I have to drive home from work at 11pm tonight. It's going to suck either way.

I don't think you will ever be able to predict exact conditions when dealing with nature. However, some of the weather predictions and models have been very good. Maybe your expectations are a bit too high.

Yeah...been keeping an eye on them recently and they have been pretty good.

Because I have no life still fucking with some on there who are clueless on a map as to where they live.

Maybe McSobers will deliver wings....

Even if you know 25% off this, which is normal for NAM, we are in for some good snows. This is the latest NAM.

Judging by the radar loop I just watched and the fact that I drove through west central Ohio about an hour ago, I am concluding that you are a liar.

Downer.

I gotta go to work at 4am or second thought maybe 3:30am. I doubt it'll be much better in the morning.

Darke county is covered in snow/ice when it's 80 degrees outside. It's a hellhole for driving.

lol. My buddy learned one night his pick up wouldn't go over 99mph, coming home from Eldora and getting smoked by a Pontiac GXP.

I've not experienced the back roads of Darke during snow. All I know is Miami county is a hell of a lot better than Champaign county at keeping roads clear.
