1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:05,840 Speaker 1: The words that are being used include catastrophic and arctic. 2 00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:10,000 Speaker 1: So the National Weather Service has warned of great swaths 3 00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:15,360 Speaker 1: of heavy snow, sleet, and treacherous freezing rains starting Friday 4 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:19,439 Speaker 1: and much of the nation's mid section, right around its belly, 5 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:21,239 Speaker 1: and then starting. 6 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:23,360 Speaker 2: The belly of the nation, and. 7 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:27,040 Speaker 1: Then it's gonna shift towards the east coast through Sunday. 8 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:31,360 Speaker 3: It's got a name. When did we start naming winter storm? 9 00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 4: It was about five six years ago, I remember specifically, 10 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 4: because you know, they obviously there's a naming system for 11 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 4: hurricanes that we're all familiar with, and then they started 12 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:46,479 Speaker 4: naming other winter storms. I'm gonna say, just because it's fun, Okay, 13 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:48,279 Speaker 4: just try to have fun with it, because why not 14 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 4: try to have fun with the weather. 15 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 1: You can say, do you remember where you were when 16 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 1: winter Storm Fern hit? 17 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 3: That's what this one is called Fern, Which is interesting. 18 00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 2: That's and not to me, fern with an F. You're 19 00:00:58,560 --> 00:00:59,959 Speaker 2: not saying vern with a V. 20 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,480 Speaker 3: No, I'm not saying like the saying fern like a plant. 21 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:04,560 Speaker 2: You know, you know what I mean? 22 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:04,880 Speaker 4: Vern? 23 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, guy from the eighties, So fern like the plant. 24 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:10,119 Speaker 3: To me, that's like a warm weather name. 25 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, fern does sound a little tropical. 26 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,399 Speaker 4: Actually, that's a better name for a hurricane, right, Hurricane fern. 27 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:18,199 Speaker 3: You missed your fern with some water and watch it grow. 28 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:19,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, sounds tropical. 29 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,679 Speaker 1: This is much different. They're saying that it could It 30 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: could potentially affect two hundred and thirty million people, about 31 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,399 Speaker 1: two thirds of the entire country. But I guess it 32 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 1: depends on which model you're looking at. Are we looking 33 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:37,400 Speaker 1: at the American model or the European model they're using. 34 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,120 Speaker 2: I think for most of these they're using the Heisenberg model. 35 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 4: Which oh no, no, no, that is a that that model 36 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 4: is how to cook meth shout out, shout out to 37 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 4: Breaking bade. 38 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 3: The Heisenberg model. 39 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 2: That's his name. 40 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 4: Walter White even know that because I watched Breaking Bad. Okay, 41 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 4: we talked about Netflix earlier. Let's have another Netflix conversation 42 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 4: because Breaking Bad was a Netflix show. So when Netflix, 43 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 4: when Breaking Bad first came out, whatever it was, ten 44 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 4: or fifteen years ago, you and I we had heard 45 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 4: a lot about the show. Great, we're gonna sit down, 46 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 4: we're gonna watch Breaking Bad. And right near the end 47 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 4: of the first episode, there was a I want to 48 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 4: say this about grossing everybody out. But there was a 49 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 4: guy that was no longer alive, and he was in 50 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 4: a bathtub and the bathtub came trying too and the 51 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 4: bathtub came crashing through from the second floor and landed 52 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 4: on the main floor. 53 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 2: And that's when I stopped. 54 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 4: It was a very disgusting scene. And you said, that's it. 55 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 4: I'm done with this show and never watched an another 56 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 4: episode of Breaking Bed. So Heisenberg is Walter White's nickname, 57 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 4: and Breaking Bad Heisenberg is a chemist. It has nothing 58 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 4: to do with weather models. I was just being silly 59 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 4: and having fun. Sorry, just trying to have some fun. 60 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 4: Didn't know that wasn't allowed on this show. 61 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 2: We'll keep it serious, Okay. 62 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 3: So what are they saying. 63 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 1: They're saying that you should make sure you've got some 64 00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 1: food and the supplies that you could need if you're stuck, 65 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: because one of the big issues. 66 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 3: That might happen is loss of power. 67 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm gonna expect if you go to grocery stores 68 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 4: here in Central Indiana in the next day or two, 69 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 4: you're going to have limited selection on the staples bread 70 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 4: and milk and eggs. Because what I'm assuming this will happen, 71 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 4: because it seems like it happens anytime we've got, you know, 72 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 4: a three or four day notice of a nasty winter 73 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,639 Speaker 4: storm coming, is that people go to the grocery stores 74 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 4: and stock up like it's COVID two point zero. 75 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: Okay, So you've got the potential for refreezing on roads, 76 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 1: and that's going to prolong any of your travel that 77 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: you have planned. It seems to me that the most 78 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: snow we're going to get is scheduled for Sunday. 79 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, we're gonna look, this is gonna impact us. 80 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 2: It's gonna be cold. 81 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 4: We're gonna see high Saturday and Sunday in the you know, 82 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 4: high single digits, low double digits, overnight lows near zero 83 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 4: or slightly below zero. We're about supposed to get about 84 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 4: an inch on Saturday, maybe three to five inches on Sunday. 85 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 4: It's going to be farther south oddly enough as to 86 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 4: where they're really going to get hit. And again we 87 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 4: talked a little bit about this yesterday. Those southern cities, 88 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 4: they do not have the infrastructure and the services to 89 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 4: be able to manage ice and snow on their way. 90 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 4: Now they don't, and we see these stories salt for decades. 91 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 4: Where you know, there's a dusting of snow in Nashville 92 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 4: and all the schools shut down for three days, that's 93 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 4: where you're gonna see it, because it's going to be nasty. 94 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 2: I mean really far south. 95 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 4: Houston, Dallas, Jackson, Mississippi, Nashville, Atlanta, Charlotte, A lot of 96 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,479 Speaker 4: southern cities are going to see this ice and this 97 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 4: snow and this cold, and they just are not prepared 98 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,359 Speaker 4: and don't have the infrastructure to manage it. So my 99 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 4: guess is that's like where the stretch of the real 100 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 4: struggle for people is going to. 101 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: So we can expect some colder temperatures and some snow, 102 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: but we're Hoosiers. 103 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 3: We're used to this, right, It's. 104 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,559 Speaker 2: The end of January. What do you expects called winter? 105 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's called winter. This is not that big of 106 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 4: a deal for us here in Central Indiana. It's certainly 107 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 4: going to be impacted, but it's going to be a 108 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 4: lot of a lot of other states and a lot 109 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 4: of other cities across the rest of the country. They're 110 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 4: going to have a really hard time with it this weekend. 111 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: I did text our daughter last night. I just said, 112 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:02,479 Speaker 1: make sure you have food and supplies. Looks like a 113 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: bad winter storm coming.

She's the smartest 131 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 4: one in the family. I'm sure she's aware that there's 132 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 4: a nasty winter storm coming. 133 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 2: I don't know. 134 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 3: Does she keep up on current events? 135 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 2: I don't know. 136 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 4: She'll be fine either way, even if she doesn't have 137 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 4: eggs and milk at home, she'll be all right. She's 138 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 4: got three restaurants literally right across the street from her 139 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 4: apartment because she lives in a downtown location. 140 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 2: She'll be okay, though. 141 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 1: It's what moms do, though, But you don't have to 142 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: make sure that their babies are okay. 143 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 2: You don't have to she's gonna be okay.
