In the Eye of the Storm

The weatherman has predicted this for days. Dire predictions have followed more dire predictions, followed by softening of the dire predictioins, followed by increasing the dire predictions.

We're going to have a snow event in our state.

First it was supposed to start at noon today, then late afternoon.

It finally started about 6 p.m.

Now, what is coming down appears to be some sort of freezing rain, sleet, or frizzle. It is covering the street with a wet coating, but I'm not brave enough to go out and test it out.

My deck freezes quickly, so it is covered with ice.

We are supposed to get snow by morning, with an accumulation of 3-5" by then. I'm hoping not, because I am scheduled for an unpleasant medical test tomorrow morning at the crack of dawn, and really want to get it over with!

I'll let you know the outcome of both events.
