What weather events are impacting Richmond?
I survived the bitter blast, and now I believe we're on to the, I don't know, Blue Mountain Freeze.
Are these coffee flavors?
Yeah, what are we talking about? This is the names that the local weather station that plays in my coffee shop that I see many mornings gives to weather for the week. So this past week it was cold. It got very cold. It is January. That happens. That was apparently the bitter blast. Like, were weather... as heavily branded in the past as they are now?
I don't know, but now that you've opened this can of worms, buckle up, because I have thoughts about weather right now. So to recap, and I've been through this many times, Virginia, or Richmond anyway, I shouldn't generalize to Virginia, Richmond, if we get like three inches of snow in a day or so, the kids will be out of school for probably a day, right? So if they know that three inches is due on a Tuesday, they'll be out that Tuesday. Right. Six plus inches of snow, you're looking at multiple days off of school, generally speaking, like anywhere between two and five days off of school, right? As I sit here now on Wednesday evening, we are slated for three inches of snow on Saturday, which is manageable for us, but a little aggressive.
On Sunday, we're due for 24 inches. In total, that is 30 inches of snow, which I don't even know. I think it's like three quarters of a meter or something like that. It's ridiculous how much snow we're going to be. It's about three quarters of a meter of snow.
That is something.
That's not good. I said to Aaron just yesterday, you know what's about to happen is that we're going to get the COVID we thought we were getting in 2020 where we don't leave the house for two weeks and then we'll leave again. because we will be utterly screwed if richmond gets a damn near meter of snow and it's going to be awful but no i haven't heard any branding for the snow that we're getting to come back to your actual point um it hasn't been branded but we are getting so going to be getting so much snow and i was out running errands earlier today and everyone is driving like idiots because they're all trying to go to the grocery store and buy all the things aaron went to costco during the like
fancy lad hours or fancy last in her case hours, you know, where, where you, if you have the, I think it's the executive membership, which is not that much money at all. Um, you can go an hour earlier than the plebes. And she was there, uh, this morning. Yeah. And the, the store hadn't officially opened for the regular folks. And she said the line was all the way to the back of the store to check out. Like it's, Ridiculous.
I mean, but that makes sense. Like for a place like that, that doesn't really have snow infrastructure to be facing a giant storm like that is actually, you know, expected behavior and not that unreasonable.
I mean, this would all happen if we were getting just the three inches of snow. But the 24 we're currently slated for that that will ruin Richmond for at least a week, probably the better part of two weeks.
How does snow affect school closures?
Now, that being said, oftentimes, like when it gets close, it'll peter out and decide, oh, actually, I'm going to take a turn to the north or the south or, you know, something will happen on the way. But yeah, I'm screwed. I am legitimately lightly concerned about my presence on the podcast. Not obviously tonight, but a week from tonight, because who knows? We may not have power for a week or so. I don't know. It's going to be great. Jeez.
Oh, by the way, so first of all, yes, good luck, everybody, getting through that. That could be quite something for a lot of our listeners. Totally separately, not even close to related, you mentioned she went during the plebeian hours or whatever.
That was before the plebeian hours that she was there.
Anyway, I just finished Pluribus on Apple TV. It's really good. I haven't seen it yet. I'm not going to say anything about it, except I really enjoyed it, and I can recommend it. Oh, good deal. The less you know, the better.
Look at you watching modern TV shows.
