Will this be a flash freeze type storm where temps crash extremely rapidly or will it be a gradual drop?

There's also the wild card, places that have frozen solid ground several inches deep, and places that have a snow pack that can survive can instantly freeze any liquid that falls even if temps are a little over freezing or more marginal. Add to the mix temps can be a few degrees lower at frozen surface as well do to frozen ground.

Snowing moderately and everyman covered so far here on the snowy jackpot side of the island right now lol

Nws 4 pm update just raised my snow amounts in the Blizzard warning. Interesting.

You gotta say that then lol
