It’s so fricking retarded when they just make up words for dramatic effect.

Keep that shite out of the Baton Rouge area. The novelty of snow lost its lustre the last couple of times we had it.

We typically end up on the edges of them here in Kentucky when they drop down from the Midwest.

And it can be a big deal depending on how cold it gets. In 2022 we got 2-3 inches of snow but the wind chill got down in -20s. And it was like a 50 degree drop in 24 hours.

It sucked. And froze our water lines, not in the house, but out at the main near the road.

No one “made up” that word for dramatic effect. Polar Vortex was coined by meteorologists back in the 1940s to simply describe a rotating air mass that originated in the polar regions.

The national media heard the phrase a decade ago, latched onto it, and has pumped it into every potential major winter storm since then.

Tragic. How many deaths due to dehydration?

I hope it sets records, because on January 9 I get on a plane to the Bahamas for 15 days of work.
