Naaaah, not my original thing; it's a South Louisiana/Acadiana legend.
Anyways, they've uped the ante; now the forecast is for 4-6 inches of sneaux on the ground + possibly some ice accumulation. We're now under a Winter Storm Warning and a Cold Weather Advisory for wind chills expected to fall into the teens; and a Wind Chills Warning for Tuesday night/Wednesday morning for wind chills in the single digits. Brrrrrr.
