It was predicted to start snowing heavily last night and in to today. But instead this was a morning of dry pavement and easy commutes. Every school in the area is shut down, and most governments are on liberal leave policy. But there is not a flake in sight.

Now scientists on Channel 5 are predicting a regional cooling event starting sometime in the late morning and continuing into the afternoon. Snow, rain, and more snow are on the menu, but not nearly in the doom and gloom depths that they were promising yesterday. The temperatures are still 20 degrees below average, but I blame global warming.
