Been off the mountain a while, and just got back. Already close to 1/3" here, and of course the snow cover started in earnest at 3500'. :-) Temperature has dropped to 33 degrees, with a forecast low in the 20s. Black ice will be a concern, along with accumulating snow.
Maybe my trusty GFS model pushing for 2-4" will verify. The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for ACA for elevations above 2500' (instead of the usual 3500'), calling for 1-3" of snow. The advisory runs until 10am Monday.
Slippery roads will be developing before too long, and tomorrow morning should be a mess here. Because I'm involved with the school system, a delay is certainly possible, If it appears buses can't safely run by 9am, it will be a no-day for all. The up-side is radar echoes at 9pm show a quickly-diminishing precipitation field. Black ice will be the biggest concern.
Be careful y'all. I'll update as needed later.
