february IS snowy. but are you aware that you can get an INCH of snow out of .05 inches of water?
as in, little tiny rainshower that barely makes the ground wet = enough liquid to paint the town white with snow.
as in, ONE BIG SNOWSTORM in february could be less than half an inch of liquid, but you'd remember it as being a snowy february.
as in, their plan is working.
they get drought, we get to believe everything's "normal"
it's not normal. but it is 'all under control'
total precip this feb at DULLES: .25 in.
avg for feb: 2.77
we had better get three or four feet of snow in the next twelve days if we wanna get back to "normal."
