Not sure I understand this one, slippery spots on bridges, but little to no accumulation. All it takes is a heavier band to put down a quick inch, seems to have backed off from the overnight and morning disco, and in coordination with Big Brother pulls the trigger. At-least they did not wait till there is 1" on the ground to hoist the WWA, but wording does not fit the criteria imo...

National Mosaic valid 1:58pm EST

RAH Level 2 @ 2pm EST

Woke up this afternoon at about 12:30 in GSO to find it snowing outside... the ground was completely uncovered though... I jumped in the shower and by the time I had gotten back out it had accumulated quite a bit. Just drove back to Burlington and I have to say it was snowing pretty hard for most of the way... I wouldn't be surprised if we ended up with a few inches from this. I can't fathom how we would end up with less than 2 at this point.

Snowing hard in Burlington currently.
