Just So You Know I'm Not Making this Shit Up

I know I've been hemming and hawing about this endless winter, but a national media outlet has my back. Forbes has ranked Cleveland as America's Worst Winter Weather City. With an average temperature of 49.6 degrees, average rainfall of 38.7 inches and average snowfall of 58.9 inches, Cleveland finally ranks No. 1 in something. Hip-hip-hooray!

As for this past weekend's snowstorm, no, it was not the final blow. It's been snowing all day. And it will continue snowing for the next couple days. The Weather Channel predicts another six to 12 inches of snow accumulation for northern Ohio.

Running may be sporadic, if evident at all.

Boozing is more likely.

P.S., I assume since a national media outlet was the source of this ranking that more people will actually hear about it from me first.

At least you are number one in piss poor weather. Our "queen city" was number one in murder for years before finally shaking that monicker. Though I think it still lives in the hearts and minds of our fellow Americans...

Buckle in...its going to be a crazy few days.

I have heard about the forecast for more snow tonight and tomorrow. At least it's good for forts!

Yeah well, we had an earthquake here in Illinois. Along with over a foot of snow. Snowquake 2010.

So funny...as a former NE Ohioan I can totally relate. Ironically, I am now living in Balt. which has suddenly become blizzard central. Good luck with your training.
