The above announcement had to be repeated several days this week.
In other news, I won't be be passing anyone anytime soon:


When I said I hoped the weather droids were wrong, I should have been specific.
Unfortunately I do not have pictures of the seven stuck buses seen within 1 mile of my house.
We do not generally get much snow here, and this is the largest snowfall in 40 years. It's 15 inches deep in undisturbed, un-drifted snow. That would be 7.5 inches snow, 1/2 inch ice, and another 7 inches snow, with more on the way tomorrow. The nature of more being described roughly as 'probably snow, but it could be freezing rain or sleet or a mix, or it might warm up and be rain'. The weather folk have pretty much given up on precision in forecasting. They've been saying it's going to warm up in two or three days for about the last five days. They're sure to be right sometime.
