I awaked to our typical lack of the storm of the century which had been predicted for this area. My back porch had less snow on it than Spexxvet's as of noon today.
Had to go out to the grocery store, of course I went once it had "really started" snowing, meaning that there were more than flurries. No crowd at the market, which was nice, made the ultimate in grocery store faux pas (had more that 15 items, didn't realize I'd loaded my stuff up on an express lane), and returned home without incident. County Emergency Dispatch sent a message to my pager saying that we'd receive 2-4 inches of snow, and that the changeover to sleet and freezing rain would occur around 2100 to 2300 hrs tonight, with heavy accumulation expected.
County Dispatch is way better than Accuweather.
I am very glad that I am not at work right now.
I have plenty of beer.
