Once again, DC is in that weird no-man's-land of storms. Points north and west of the city are under a winter storm watch, but the nearer suburbs and the city itself look more likely to get mostly rain.
So I don't know why the Federal government has already announced unscheduled leave/telework for tomorrow.
If the red line isn't running after 11 tomorrow night there will be a lot of us having a slumber party at the theatre.
quester, nothing like jumping in the deep end. Good luck.
Prediction for here is, once again, 2-3 inches. Not enough to shut anything down, but enough to make the roads a mess.
This is the second winter in a row where Indiana is taking more snow on than Wisconsin. I feel bad for my family stuck in the Snowpocaplypse region.
Connie -have you had the pretzel centered M&Ms?
I have. I have not been moved to try them, because chocolate and pretzels don't mix in my mind.
Cash, I think you're from the same place as my friends G & M.
From the Chicago Tribune:
Here's the expected timing:
Snow will increase in intensity and become heavy at times south of Interstate Highway 80 Tuesday afternoon, gradually spreading north into northern Illinois by Tuesday evening.
Snow--at times heavy--will continue Tuesday night into Wednesday morning. Snow showers will continue near Lake Michigan in northeast Illinois Wednesday morning, shifting into Northwest Indiana during the afternoon.
Northeast winds of 25 to 40 mph with stronger gusts are expected to result in blizzard conditions developing Tuesday evening and continuing into the overnight hours.
Light snow is expected to fall starting Monday morning with up to 4 inches of accumulation expected by midday Tuesday. Following that, the more severe storm is expected to move north into the Chicago area from Arkansas late Tuesday and into Wednesday.
Oh, I forgot to mention that I have to get to the airport which is, of course way South of town. Not as bad as KC, but not close!
