According to weatherman extraordinaire Cliff Mass, we may have a snowapocalypse next week.  It’s too early to say for sure, but it could be big.

As the folks at the National Weather Service state,

STARTING WEDNESDAY THROUGH THE END OF NEXT WEEK…THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR A WIDESPREAD HEAVY SNOW EVENT SOMEWHERE IN WESTERN WASHINGTON. GREAT UNCERTAINTY INHERENTLY EXISTS IN A FORECAST WITH THIS MUCH LEAD TIME…AND IT IS POSSIBLE THAT A HEAVY SNOW SITUATION WILL NOT DEVELOP. CHECK BACK LATE THIS WEEKEND OR ON MONDAY FOR THE LATEST ON THIS POTENTIAL HIGH-IMPACT EVENT. IF THE POTENTIAL STILL EXISTS AT THAT TIME…THEN THE DRY WEATHER ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY WOULD AFFORD AN EXCELLENT OPPORTUNITY TO PREPARE.

Did you note their “excellent opportunity to prepare” line?  Just because they’re bossy, doesn’t mean that they’re wrong.  I guess it’s time to stock up on groceries and make sure that we’ve got the makings for hot chocolate.
