Several Winter Weather Advisories are currently in effect for Interior Alaska. Currently, we have a mixture of rain, sleet, and snow in the area, creating slick conditions.

Dear @typingmonkey,

To quote yourself from 2011, " should be a delightful combo of pecans, filberts & brazil nuts in a decorative tin, but it's actually unflavored slushy death."

Guess what weather we're having right now?

Actually, is that ALSO what you're having right now?? (Southern California seems to be auditioning for a sequel to THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW at the moment.)

: when the forecast sounds like PowerBall numbers (22, 56, 39, 18, 48...)

It's never good when the precipitation blowing against your windows sounds like a handful of needles.

When did they even start saying and think "yep, that sounds good"? It only went into fashion about 5 or 6 years ago. Meteorology is a science. It should be more direct. Stop beating around the bush about what's happening in the sky.

Meteorologists and/or weather reporters: can we please stop saying or ? It's so stupid and sounds too euphemismistic. Wintery mix could be some starchy snack they serve at the bar, or a dumb dance party occasion that teens attend. Why don't you just say "frozen precipitation"? I get it, sometimes it's hard to tell between snow, hail, or sleet, but do better.
