Keeps changing from parachutes to a lighter snow/graupel mix here. When the parachutes start, it starts accumulating on the sides of the roads but then melts after a few min. But we officially have accumulating snow mid day in mid April.
His "expect a slow afternoon commute" may mean snow covered roads and he forgot to add that part? :-). I will be surprised if the western LSV does not see some decent periods of snow. We now have steady light snow here.
