        Yah, if you live next to a Great Lake. Sure.

        People around here call them weather terrorists, but the only people getting chubbies are the people who are told there's a one in a billion chance of a foot of snow and most likely around an inch. What they hear is 100% of two feet of snow.

        The meteorologists and reporters shrug, almost everyone else says, "well, would ya look at dat" and quickly moves on, and the real weather terrorists are just annoying people who ***** about meteorologists for the next week.

          The Star Trib. And they are not saying for sure. They are saying it's a super remote possibility we don't want to over-estimate and get roasted by our readers.
          Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                  But the fact is, I saw it reported from a reputable (not my opinion) newspaper.

                  They've been saying it for the past day or two.

                  I agree, it's gonna be slush at worst.

                      That sounds about right. It's a matter on how you measure a "lake."

                        Yeah, my parents live on a "lake" in northern lower Michigan that feels more like a "lake" in northern Ontario - long and narrow-ish. Deep enough in spots (30-40 feet), and very fishable with a motor, but more like a wide part of a river - not really a lake.

                          It's not going to be anything. It's going to be rain. Jeebus.

                            I think it has to do with area size.

                            And yes, it'll be most likely rain. Won't get cold enough in the Cities. Up north, may be a little different. Haven't looked at forecast up there.

                              What it really has to do with, as far as my parent's "lake" is concerned, is how the ice sheet retreated 10,000+ years ago. IMO, you can look at that part of Michigan, and sort of see, based on the size, shape, and average depth of the surrounding lakes (Huron aside), that it was one of the last to be covered by the ice sheet that carved out NE Michigan / northern Lake Huron.

                                I was meaning on how someone determines if it's a lake, a pond, etc.
