I’m so beyond done with this winter…and because of that, I don’t think what is supposedly coming tomorrow will be that intense…I hope I’m not updating this thread this time tomorrow realizing otherwise… ---

They’ve had a pretty solid track record with the storm predictions so far this season. The great blizzard was on the low side because no one predicted the lake to freeze over during the blizzard and shut off the lake effect guns but other than that anytime they’ve said 6-10" (or any range) some town actually got somewhere between 6 and 10" of snow. NOAA is still saying 10-17 but their warning hasn’t updated since 10am this morning. The updates usually come out around 3-3:30. EDIT: Nevermind, update came out at 2:01 > - LOCATIONS…NIAGARA FRONTIER. > - TIMING…LATE TONIGHT THROUGH OVERNIGHT WEDNESDAY NIGHT. > - HAZARDS…HEAVY SNOW AND BLOWING SNOW. > - ACCUMULATIONS…8 TO 12 INCHES WEDNESDAY AND 2 TO 4 INCHES > WEDNESDAY NIGHT…LEADING TO STORM TOTALS OF 10 TO 16 INCHES. > - WINDS…NORTH 20 TO 30 MPH…GUSTS TO 40 MPH NEAR THE LAKE > ONTARIO SHORELINE. > - VISIBILITIES…AS LOW AS A QUARTER MILE AT TIMES. > - IMPACTS…CONDITIONS WILL RAPIDLY DETERIORATE WEDNESDAY > MORNING…WITH RELATIVELY LIGHT SNOW BECOMING HEAVY BY LATE > MORNING. THE COMBINATION OF HEAVY SNOW AND BLOWING SNOW WILL > MAKE TRAVEL EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE WEDNESDAY > AFTERNOON. VISIBILITY WILL BE DRAMATICALLY REDUCED WITH DEEP > SNOW COVER ON ROADWAYS DURING THE PEAK OF THE STORM.

The door is open because the sun has super heated the office. Tomorrow should be fun because everyone has certainly forgotten how to drive in the snow by now. :eyeroll: ---

No, the problem is my mom’s place is over on the NT/Wheatfield line (she watches her on snow days) and I don’t want to deal with that hike after work in the peak of the storm in a car with 2.5" of ground clearance. ---
