    Just started to snow supposed to keep going til tomorrow. Looks like a normal snow storm. If it’s a dud there will be alot of need for reefer loads due to all the ransacking of grocery stores for snow apocalypse. Stores were packed with people like it was thanksgiving shopping. Store shelves were empty like start of the lock down. People are so unprepared.

    I'm going to call a miscall on some meteorologists part... My money says no more than 12 inches of snow accumulation in WY and NE, with a srong possibility of much LESS than that. Just my prediction... Lets see how it plays out.

    Naa, people just like shopping. Just give them a good excuse.

    Nobody will use 99% of all the crap they buy supposedly preparing for the storm.

    Remember, they all prepared for the "Most deadly virus in 100 years" by
    buying out the entire worlds supply of Toilet Paper!

    I know quite a few people in Boulder. While all the things like milk, butter and bread were still in plentiful supply, fresh produce and almond milk were all gone. If you're going to "veg out" throughout a supposedly debilitating snow storm, might as well be one with the vegetable

    Luckily down where I live, I too go for a lot of vegan fare for gout flare up reasons. While all the usual local chonkers were fighting over the last steak or milk jug, I just knocked a bunch of Daiya and Whitewave products into my bag and meandered off.
