oh man, they were both fantastic!
  Fri. 2/8/13 9:40am Frank:

I'm guessing Kenny originally read this report on a day like this
Avatar ♥   Fri. 2/8/13 9:43am fred:

@Frank: it once served as his review of the year, broadcast over two shows, the last one of that year and the first of the next. I think it's also one of his books
  Fri. 2/8/13 9:47am Chhh:

Your miscued record worked very well together with my flatmates video of a laptop orchestra he was watching at the same time. Only happy accidents.

I love snow. I think you are all lucky if snow is coming your way!
  Fri. 2/8/13 9:47am Frank:

fred, good god, did it last the entire length of the show? he did that once with some tax code
Avatar ♥   Fri. 2/8/13 9:49am fred:

@Frank: it lasted for the entire length of two shows. I linked to the archives in a comment at 9:11

I mean the really deep stuff. not that wet stuff..

Thanks again for the Kenny G, Scott.
Now I have to go to yet another boring meeting, planned to last for hours. And I mean "boring boring"

Comrades between NYC and Boston: is this weather event serious, or hype? or both? .. had to book some sudden travel up that way, hoping it's passable by sunday...

nice mixing...perfect song for this am

I never pictured Stephin Merritt as a Johnny Cash-type singer, but it really is nice.
Avatar ♥   Fri. 2/8/13 10:34am G:

Currently in central BK, a light rain/sleet mix.

Real storm starts midafternoon into overnight.

The big snow will be in rural/suburban areas north of NYC -- Boston is the big city it will probably really hit.

I'm not using those Dungeons and Dragons or WoW names the Weather Channel (US cable tv) started making up for winter storms after the Halloween Hurricane -- Athena, Nemo, etc. The official storm recording people (NOAA, NWS) say those names are BS. It's just easier to hype up ratings with a named storm than an unnamed one.
Avatar ♥   Fri. 2/8/13 10:36am BSI:

Yeh, was afraid of that. Flying into boston & driving a rental north from there. So everyone has until Sunday afternoon to clean that sheeeeit up good & proper.

Avatar ♥   Fri. 2/8/13 10:47am G:

wiki article on weather channel (there are footnotes in the original): "Beginning in the fall of 2012, the Weather Channel has named major winter storms. It officially named the nor'easter that hit the East Coast of the United States in November 2012 after the Greek goddess Athena. In response, the National Weather Service announced on November 7, 2012 that it would not recognize the Weather Channel’s name for winter storms, stating in a press release that "it does not use the name of winter storms"... "
  Fri. 2/8/13 10:51am Frank:

I'm betting on the MK forecast
Avatar ♥   Fri. 2/8/13 10:51am Jeff:

Stoopid Weather Channel.

Stoopid other media repeating their invalid storm names.
Avatar ♥   Fri. 2/8/13 10:56am fleep:

They could sell the naming rights for a little extra revenue. Winter Storm Pringles. Winter Storm Lysol.
Avatar ♥   Fri. 2/8/13 10:58am Jeff:

Lysol just sounds like a drag queen.
Avatar ♥   Fri. 2/8/13 10:58am stefica:

@sean808080: is that a command or a report?
Avatar ♥   Fri. 2/8/13 11:00am Ken From Hyde Park:

At what point will they begin naming summertime thunderstorms?

Following the example of urban "adopt a bus stop" programs, I could see an opportunity for Hurricane BSI, etc... I always wanted to beat the hell out of south Florida.
Avatar ♥   Fri. 2/8/13 11:15am Mike East:

oh, that Petra Haden. Bless her.

I am going to favorite/star this Superman Theme song. LOVE IT.
  Fri. 2/8/13 11:16am Cecile:

hahha. bless her heart.

Sudden urge to layer this Petra Haden piece over the Dylan Nyoukis bit Fabio played yesterday. Simmer over medium heat, serve with papadum & chutney.
Avatar ♥   Fri. 2/8/13 11:23am Ike:

Mmm, papadum.
Avatar ♥   Fri. 2/8/13 11:23am Jeff:

I was in the kitchen listening, and all of a sudden it was like, "Hey, this sounds just like when that Haden lady did the whole Who record a capella, except... Superman.

And that's what it was. Excellent.
Avatar ♥   Fri. 2/8/13 11:29am Ken From Hyde Park:

The weather report broadcast is like a WFMU Aircheck show from a few years ago.

Canoochi was a brilliant track

Oh how we miss Kenny G.
Avatar Fri. 2/8/13 11:44am Marmalade Kitty:

last year in the Uk there was a government inquest into why an inch of snow was allowed to bring services and the country to a halt..
Avatar ♥   Fri. 2/8/13 11:46am Mike East:

Feeling even in the morning, Yair.
Avatar Fri. 2/8/13 11:56am Marmalade Kitty:

cant seem to find the info on that inquest :) I seem to remember something along those lines.. a proposal..?
  Fri. 2/8/13 11:59am ian:

Stupid weather! I was going to see Jeff Mangum in Providence on Sunday, but my bus has already been cancelled.. guess we will have to see what shakes out.
Avatar Fri. 2/8/13 11:59am Marmalade Kitty:

maybe it was hidden by a light dusting of snow
