The first official flakes fell at the GSD Home Office at 12:56 PM. Several municipalities have declared Snow Emergencies. The Winter Storm Warning is now in effect. The radar shows that several bands of heavy snow (1-2" per hour) will come through later this afternoon and evening. The cancellation list is up and running.

But we do want to caution readers that there is a scenario where we get a quick burst of snow tonight and then a long lull in the snow until it picks up again tomorrow afternoon around the same time as today (2 PM or so). If the quick burst ends around midnight, road crews would have time to clear roads for the morning commute. And with the second round of snow not anticipated until the end of the school day, some districts might be able to sneak in a full day. That's why we continue to hold off on the 100% confidence rating.

If you have to go out, take care out there.
