Watch Out For Black Cats

Friday...Friday the 13th...a day that strikes fear into many, but it shouldn't because it is the beginning of the weekend. Sure, the weather isn't supposed to be all that great. Sure, it is going to snow this afternoon into the evening. Sure, the roads will probably get icy as it gets dark this afternoon, but look at the bright side...black cats will turn white if left outside. Now I wish the snow would just get rid of the cats, all of them, as I really don't care much for cats. As I mentioned the main snow threat will be this afternoon into this evening, and accumulations will be light with about an inch for most areas, and up to two in the higher ground around town. As it begins this afternoon the streets and highways will just be wet, but when it gets dark they are likely to get pretty slick. We will all have to brush up on our winter driving skills. Some of us...ME...need to get new tires. That won't happen today though as I imagine that all of the tire outlets will be swamped with people...like me...who have known for a long time that they needed new tires and have done nothing to remedy that problem.

After the snow the weekend will be cold and quiet. It is 32 degrees right now, and we will end up in the mid to upper 30s today. It won't any warmer tomorrow or Sunday. Warmer air will be arriving early next week and rain will probably be here by Tuesday. Our little bit of snow may be visible on the ground into Sunday, but after that...not so much.
