Post-storm concerns: flash freezing, flooding, slickness
First, the roads are crap: slushy and gross. And the snow is preventing drainage, so the rain will create ponding on roadways and isolated flooding.
And then the flash freeze (which is not "Freeze Frame" by J. Geils Band, though now that song is in your head).
Temperatures will begin falling from 36 around 1pm to 28 by 3pm ... to 20 by 6pm (sunset at 5:23pm will hurry along this precipitous drop) ... to 10 by Tuesday morning’s commute.
Untreated surfaces (like certain parking lots I schlopped through this morning) will have lots of ponding and slick surfaces due to rapid freezing. Use caution when driving this evening and tomorrow morning.
Chance of early dismissal Monday, 9.3%
Chance of delay Tuesday, 63.33%
Chance of cancellation Tuesday, 2.55%
Wednesday night into Thursday – some models see a storm but right now it’s just looking like flurries or light snow showers.
Something maybe on Sunday 2/8.
Stay tuned for updates...
