4 inches of snow yesterday. Oh, I know, it's only four inches. But for crying out loud, it needs to stop. I made it home from work with no trouble as the roads were basically just wet; PennDOT had gone through and treated everything. But man, I no sooner got home from work last night than it just let loose. We had white-out conditions for a while....we couldn't even see across the road. The biggest snowflakes I think I've ever seen. It's a really heavy, wet snow and it froze. Needless to say, cleaning vehicles wasn't pretty this morning and there's black ice everywhere. Parts of I-80 were shut down because of accidents last night. I-80 is our major east-west thoroughfare and people were saying it was just ugly. And the whole time, The Weather Channel just kept saying that we were getting light rain.....liars! All of them! Some areas just west of us got as much as seven inches!
We're not shoveling the driveway. We give up. Today, we are to be in the mid-40s, so most of it should melt.
Our local weatherweenie has warned that, although they are calling for rain on Saturday, there's a "good chance" that it could turn over to snow. We're a good 15-20 degrees below normal at this point. We might get a day or two in the 50s, but for the most part, we're hanging in the 40s and upper 30s during the day with teens and 20s at night. Way too cold for this time of year.
I got two emails yesterday from people who told me they're moving to Belize with me (whether I want them to or not!).
Looks like I'll have company when I do go. My brother and SIL told me a couple weeks ago, they're moving, too, and we'll all share a house...and I do believe they're serious. I told Mollipop last night that she's going to be a "Belizian" kitty and even she meowed OK.
