.....yawn....ya, sure its a big storm, but big deal (last time it happened was ~20 years ago; it will happen about 3 times over a human lifespan); this "superstorm" moniker is just the (shameless?) WX industry marketing for more "hits". It will only be meaningful to a handful of government and academic climate researchers. Its not like this big low pressure area is a hurricane headed for Miami Beach (where millions of people live). This so called "superstorm" will hit an area where what, 2000 people inhabit? By the time it reaches inhabited regions of North America, it will have substantially diminished in every way. Sure, it may generate a small snow storm, and some perturbations in rainfall; but no one knows where (not even in the most speculative dreams of rogue WX forecasters).
....the same marketing scenario for "polar vortex". Ya we will see successive "waves" of cold; but hey, its winter. We won't see the end of the World as we know it.
OK; back to the program...:B
