      <![CDATA[If it snows, please make it overnight so there is 6 inches or more by the time anyone wants to get in their cars. Past experience here shows that every idiot just knows they can drive in 2 inches of snow since they saw it done once on TV (they forget it was on one of those Worst TV bloopers shows).

      <![CDATA["X" on Xmas snow. <br>
<br>
While aesthetically pleasing for a short time when viewing from the warmth of a home, snow can be a nightmare in real life. Sagging tree limbs shorting power lines. Idiots in SUVs inadvertently playing chicken on the roads.<br>
<br>
I'm sure that all of the people who have to work on the long holiday weekend - truck drivers, medical personnel, police, fire, and the clerks who have to brave the hordes of shoppers - are pleased with having to slip-slide to and from work.<br>
<br>
It's bad enough that the Scrooges of the world run Congress and the state ledge. Now we have even more deluded people wanting snow, just to fulfill the lyrics of a stupid song.<br>
<br>
I say - "Bah Humbuggery!" (humbuggery - [v.] what Santa and the elves do in the off-season)

      <![CDATA[Even if it does snow, the ground temps are sure to melt it, so we won't see any accumulation, just lots of car wrecks. Over the years there have been so many predictions of snow for Little Rock that it's like Lucy pulling away the football for me.  I refuse to get hopeful about it.  The snow always seems to stop at the Pulaski/Faulkner County line.<br>

Here's a good website that explains the ring around the moon phenomenon - <br>

      <![CDATA[A friend called us during dinner to report there were triple rings around the moon <br>
last night. <br>
<br>
12 inches predicted for NWA by the time FB and blogs finished working over the subject. <br>
However, National Weather Service says for Dec 25:<br>
<br>
"A chance of rain and snow before noon, then a chance of snow. Cloudy, with a high near 33. North wind 10 to 15 mph, with gusts as high as 25 mph. Chance of precipitation is 40%. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible.<br>

"A ring around the moon is said to be a sure sign of bad weather usually rain or snow. You can tell how many days will elapse before the storm by counting the number of stars." Vance Randolph from Ozark Superstitions
