I appreciate the new follows, fellow Blue Skyers! If I haven't followed you back, it's likely because I haven't had a chance, you don't have a bio or any posts, or I can't tell what your account is all about. I'll be checking my follower list to see if I've missed anyone or if others have posted. 😀

My final forecast for new snow accumulation is nudged upward for all based on morning guidance. Most are in the 4-6" range with 2-4" south. I'm not a fan of big snow ranges unless it's epic amounts. I did my best here to highlight in purple where I believe 6-7" totals will be favored.

Per overnight guidance, I'll expand the 3-5" band about 25 miles to the south from where it was yesterday. There will likely be sharp gradients in totals south of Cincinnati with this event. I considered 5-6" zone for parts of Clinton, Warren, and Butler County but feel 3-5" is more likely.

This is so far from the mission of our university. Just no.
Word on the street is that our president told the Board of Trustees that we are making good progress on our quest to become R1, something he has never told the faculty is a goal.

OMG
Snow rounds:
1) Tonight and early Friday: 1" or less from scattered snow showers
2) 2-4" of snow between 7pm Thursday and noon Friday with the highest totals in the southwestern Tri-State
3) Another 2-4" of (new) snow between roughly 4pm Saturday and 9am Sunday

What is "slowing up"?
Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.

A lot of comments on this post show that many people do get the point of liberal education. ✊🏻
This is actually a good example of why the customer model is wrong.

I wouldn't have chosen poetry writing, but UNC made me take a class. And it absolutely made me become a much better writer, with an eye to concision and an ear now trained to the rhythm of words. I'm a better historian as a result.
If you are providing me with an education that is low utility in the world then it’s a disservice. My composition class spent four weeks on poetry. I’m sorry, but that only would’ve been useful if I wanted to be a poet. I don’t need to know iambic pentameter in order to be a victim advocate.

I think I’m giving up on in-person exams after this semester. Even with a *Wednesday* exam several students are asking for alternate arrangements because they have flights or rides home before then.
