CowTown by Charlie Podrebarac for January 04, 2021

Does it really snow that much in KC???

I think a good rule of thumb is that cartoon snow tends to run an average of about 12.7 times real snow. *

Give or take.

Therefore four feet of snow in “Cowtown” is about 3.8" on a real Kansas City sidewalk.

The multiplier would be lower in New England, where the snow on the ground is almost half what you see in cartoons…

and far larger in California… where snow in cartoons is hundreds of times more than is seen in real life.

(Reason #462 to live in California.)

That snow joke…

Bob’s in deep.

Everybody sing.. Freeze a jolly good fellow…

We have snow outside that I could chill in, but I will stay inside in front of the heater, thank you. I really miss California in the winter!

Cool it Bob.
