Messy winter storm is looming
Snow will begin around 3 on Tuesday afternoon but will shift to rain on Wednesday and is generally expected to be messy.
Snow’s been plowed around here, but I haven’t seen anything about snow removal yet – maybe they’re waiting to see what the rain does?
Update: Local news is slow Tuesday morning, except for warnings about the impending storm. Everything’s charged up to the max at Blog HQ, and I now have a tiny sterno stove for making coffee in case of power outs. Priorities.

If previous years are anything to go by, the snow will soak up the rain then freeze solid, in an immpenetrable bumpy layer until spring.

I would not bet against it.

Hopefully the trees won’t get brutalized AGAIN.

With the rain ending in another hour or two it looks like the trees are off the hook this time. Pretty good chance of the sewer drains freezing up overnight, though.
