Before I get to the weather, I need to set the record straight on something first. Back roads and subdivisions were absolutely treacherous this morning. Main roads were dangerous due to visibility issues along with some slick spots. Adding insult to injury, we received about .5"-1" of snow during the rush hour commute this morning. Why on earth did JCPS only delay? Buses were wrecking left and right, getting stuck on hills, and causing more traffic problems on top of normal commuters at 9am. I got to school 15 minutes late this morning on my bus due to horrendous traffic on Breckenridge Lane and on Taylorsville Road. Come on JCPS, remember that you have thousands of kids that you can put into harm's way. The fact that they didn't close this morning is just appalling. Kudos to the counties around us that did close. They had the safety of their students in mind.
Sorry, just had to let that one out folks. They really blew it this morning.
We did get some surprise snow showers this morning after a chance of flurries was forecast. According to the NWS, seems an area of low clouds decided to just condense and drop on us all at once unexpectedly. It's still snowing right now, and temperatures are holding in the mid 20's. Interesting how long this storm is hanging around, especially after the surprise of getting it to begin with. We'll be in the upper 40's tomorrow though, so no more surprises.
The storm on Sunday is looking warmer than initially thought and the one on Friday has vaporized from the GFS. So don't be overly optimistic on snow yet. I think the GFS is playing games on the Sunday one though, so be ready for more possible surprises there.
