Is it snowing?

[Deleted]

It's supposed to later today and then ice. Everyone is freaking the eff out. They are comparing it to a storm we had about 8 years ago when it snowed/iced in the middle of the afternoon and everyone panicked and left work/school at the same time. There was a major traffic jam every where and it took everyone about 8 hours to get home (to drive 5-10 miles).

Not at the momment. There is still snow on the ground from the last snow fall, so it can hold off awhile.

I don't remember where you live DL. It always makes me laugh when people freak out about snow.

No snow here. I'm pretty much a cold weather whimp. I know it hasn't been cold by many people's standards here, but after 2 weeks in the 20's I'm ready for summer. It was 46 degrees this morning, but they're talking about the possibility of snow on Monday.

That's what is predicted here and everyone is leaving work early, schools are already closing (there is no snow yet), etc. I could see the craziness with the threat of ICE, but they've already said that the ice will come between 4-7pm.

The same is predicted here, but everything is still open to my knowledge. I predict that will change over the next couple of hours.

It was kind of trying to snow this morning but the front hadn't moved in yet. We're supposed to get up to 2 inches today and people are all "WHITE DEATH! CLOSE THE SCHOOLS AND BUY UP ALL THE BREAD!". It will be near 60 on Tuesday so we're going from one end to the other.

Not here (obviously) but it is raining, which means means everyone seems to think the sky is falling.

SO I guess I shouldn't have made fun, it is sleeting pretty bad outside and my car is already covered in a layer of ice. I was going to try and go to the gym and run some errands at lunch, but I'm not sure that's a great idea, so I'm back in the office.

I just looked at radar and it's about an hour away. Crap.

Yeah there is a band that came through Raleigh very quickly, they weren't expecting it. They are still saying the worst is expected after lunch. I started warming up my car and thought, "nope, just not going to do it right now." Although I guess if it gets worse, I'll be walking home.
