CoolHandMike Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Roads don't look to have been treated too well. I think they brined too soon? (saw the brining on the roads on Thursday) I mean, I know it didn't wash off but still.

Yeah literally within a minute after posting that, the "skies opened up" (like a thunderstorm squall). The powdery stuff is blowing around the streets and walks and already have a dusting on the colder surfaces. Temp is down to 24 and dp up to 12.

Guess I'm just used to our usual, borderline 32° snow-to-rain events. This is a nice change from that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricane Agnes Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Did not expect the pink blob to drop all the way down here and sit over me (figured it would stay mostly in Montco) but it did. Temp still creeping down (at 24 but technically 23.7 and falling). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
