Best of the Bay 2011: BEST FLURRY FORECASTS

Though winter chills have given way to summer chills, SF residents won’t forget the “it’s gonna snow!” moment of February 2011. During this glorious time, we had not one, but two, reliable weather websites we could turn to: isitsnowinginsanfrancisco.com and isitsnowinginsfyet.com. Taking a cue from isitchristmas.com, the sites’ simple 1990s-era setups and delightfully snarky pre- and post-snow quips combined to make SF’s most recent winter weather hysteria a lot more fun for the majority of the city who didn’t see flakes. (Enough of the subfreezing temperature gloating, Sunset and Twin Peaks — you’re covered in fog the other 364 days of the year.)
