You beat me to it, Paesano!
More snow on way Thursday-Friday
Published: Tuesday, January 18, 2011
There is good news on the weather front. Temperatures have risen and most of the ice is now just a bad, slushy memory.
The bad news? There is more snow on the way, with that new favorite term of the forecasters - a 'plowable snow' - looming for Thursday night into Friday morning. And just to keep up the pattern, meterologists see another storm due next week.
Temperatures across most of the region are rising into the upper 30s, making mince meat out of all that ice that created traffic nightmares this morning. The temperatures are not expected to drop enough for any serious icing overnight.
But winter isn't anywhere near being over yet, not by a long shot. Brace yourself for the possibility of more snow Thursday night.
