It snowed almost all day yesterday, but a very light snow with almost no accumulation all day. There was some small amount on grassy areas, but the sidewalks and roads were fine. It was __supposed to__ stop snowing last night. It didn’t.
The forecast called for “snow showers” and accumulations under one inch.
I wake up this morning (Saturday) to about five inches of snow on the ground, including sidewalk and driveway. Well, I thought, apparently Mother Nature didn’t get the weather forecast.
It was 24° when I got up. That turned out to be the HIGH temperature for the day!
My son and I cleared the front walkway and a path along the rear deck. We plowed the driveway and small parking area, and put down calcium chloride ice-melt to melt what was left, let it evaporate, and get a clear, dry, driveway.
The skies were overcast all day, but they cleared out as night…
