A little more snow, a little.

More light snow falling today but the difference this time is the temperature. We are sitting at a much warmer 29 at my station which is 6 degrees warmer than it was last Friday when the snow was falling and blowing about.

Today could be the day we finally break out of the freeze and see temps above 32. Maybe, maybe not. But that event is looming on the near horizon. Sometimes these cold snaps will trap air down in the valley while the pacific brings in warmer air over the top. This is a recipe for freezing rain and that is a recipe for roadway hell.

There hasn't been much in the way of precipitation so if this changes to freezing rain i think the ice accumulation will be light. None-the-less pay attention out there if the snow changes to rain it could be the freezing variety and that means avoid driving.

Stay warm and soak up this winter weather my friends, soak it up.
