More Winter Weather on the way

Have you ever thought about how frustrating it must be to be a weatherman? You predict the weather by looking into your crystal ball or running all the little computer programs that tell you what the weather should be. You think you are sure so you get on tv and tell millions of people what you think. People rush to the store and buy toilet paper and milk and then.... You are wrong and everyone hates you.

Well, they have done it again. More winter weather in the forecast for Southside. Here is the advisory.
