I always bring a coat along in case there is a car breakdown…
Ground Hog Day Friday started out relatively mild with a bit of light rain during the first few hours of the day, but a projected turn to a period of snow till sunrise did not materialize unfortunately.

Temperatures started out in the upper 30s in the very early AM and just kept dropping almost unabatedly all day,…

Tuesday started out cloudy and a bit mild for the overnight, with light snow starting to fall around 0430 and accumulating only on the grass in light amounts (0.2″ snow, 0.01″ water equivalent) with temps just above the freezing mark and recent warmer weather keeping ground and pavement temps well above the freezing mark, hence roadways and sidewalks remained just wet. The snow only lasted less than 2 hours, as temps started to fall after the snow stopped and clouds…
