This Week in Snow...

I have been beating the drum about the cold for this upcoming week but I have not mentioned the snow. There will be chances almost every day for snow from clippers. Yes, every day! Now don't expect a double digit dumping but in the end there could be a nice snow cover for us.

The first clipper hit will come as early as tomorrow with 1 to 2 inches in the overnight.

Some key things to keep in mind...

Clippers can over perform. This past weekend was just such a storm. (It just didn't hit us.)

Snow ratios can be very high with very cold weather. Single digit to below zero can make ratios go from a typical 10/12 to 1 to 15/20 to 1.

The surprise clipper from last February I recently highlighted was classic over performance due to cold temperatures. We had single digits the night when the clipper came through.

Area School Update: I think there will be 2 hour delays from Tuesday through end if the week.
