WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY FOR ACA

I've hesitated posting a weather update as I have been waiting and waiting and waiting for GSP to post us into a Winter Weather Advisory. All the models point to a few inches of snow for us tomorrow, but GSP continued to hold us in Hazardous Weather Outlook (HWO) until just now.

What: Winter Weather Advisory
When: 5am Thursday til midnight
Amounts: 1-2" in valleys; 3-5" ridgetops (that can be read lower ACA and upper ACA)
Onset: Near dawn in ACA. Earlier west, later east.

 The next 2 days will be chilly ones, with lows at or below 32゚ and highs barely above 32゚ unless you happen to pick up a lot of sun (which there won't be much of on Thursday but there will be on Friday). 

Given our warmer temperatures we have had, our initial snow on roads will melt, then become slush, and could become icy, complicating travel throughout the day Thursday into Friday morning.

I have to leave around 645am Thursday and will post any changes before then, should there be any. Please add your road reports, etc., into the comments below, and I'll update on the hoof Thursday afternoon.
