I was starting my coffee at 5:30 this morning and heard what I thought was one of the local garbage trucks making its way up the street. I looked out the window and saw that it was one of the town's snowplows coming up the hill, turning around and heading back down. We didn't have any precipitation last night. The roads were dry and the temperature had stayed above freezing. So, why were they making the rounds?
Tomorrow, we're under a winter weather advisory for expected snow, sleet and freezing rain in the morning. It's supposed to turn to all rain by late morning, although the last time that was supposed to happen, we got about 2" of pure sleet, no snow or rain involved. No fun to drive on and even less fun to shovel (it's like 6" of wet snow in my book).
It should all be gone by Wednesday, as it's supposed to be in the 50s that day. But, the fact that they're coming around the day before to look for trouble spots in the sort of wee hours of the morning makes me wonder and I shouldn't wonder. Guess I'll be keeping an eye on the forecast - eww.
Only 42 days until Spring.
