Don't think that is going to be how it turns out.

Came home a couple hrs early to 39F and sunshine, mostly dry pavement/walkways so I too snuck in a quick dog walk (mine doesn't like cold/wet/snow) for the first time in about 2 wks. Actually felt warm-ish.

Right. Haven’t you been saying second half of January is our shot for awhile now? How is that SSW looking? Swing and a miss?

Well, if the real-deal storm comes to fruition and misses me, I can fall back on a Moderate risk for 4" of LES per the CPC. Nothing would surprise me LESS, lol.

Drove down the hill to find no snow and didn’t expect to see most of this morning’s snowfall still on the ground when I returned. Snow Pile II is born!
