Lack of snow
Reader comment on: Lack of January Snow Is a First in 75 Years

Submitted by Bill, Jan 30, 2008 18:53

I am wondering why when the forcast call for rain sometime five or more days down the road they are usually right. When the call for snow like heavy snow warning and winter storm warning and all the other watches and warning and even continue with that forcast even when it is hours past the warning of the start time. Is it that is is much harder to forcast snow? PS Let it snow
