All I can say is, we'd _better_ get a ton of snow, or it's gonna be hard to convince people to take future forecasts seriously.

Turns out you _can_ convert a weekday to a weekend-day, if you try, and you have enough notice. This may have the effect of making this storm, after it is all over and done and shoveled away, as forgettable as previous substantial snowstorms that occurred on weekend days.
