A quick one: delay tomorrow?

After today's sleet - freezing rain - rain event, what is in store for the coming week?

Today's temperatures reached the upper 30s, but are falling precipitously as we speak.  (As I type.  You know what I mean.)  It's 34 and foggy right now; by tomorrow morning's commute we'll see temperatures in the mid 20s with a stiff northern breeze making it feel like the teens.  That will make for a rapid freeze-up, and the water left on roadways will make travel slippery before dawn.  So I'm calling:

Chance of delay Tuesday, 30%

Chance of cancellation Tuesday, 4%

Wind chills overnight (Tuesday into Wednesday) will be around zero.

Cold all week, though not nearly as windy.

Milder by the weekend, when we'll have highs in the mid 40s.

Next good chance of snow or related action will be January 21st - 22nd.

Stay tuned for updates!

Monsoon

How dare you root for the Buckeyes? As a resident of Pennsylvania it is your un paralleled duty to root against all things Ohio State. Just a thought.

Hi there, concerned student. I would normally agree, but I went to graduate school at The Ohio State University, so my allegiance is to the Buckeyes...

Well there's your first problem. Side note, which remaining NFL team would you like to see win Super Bowl XLIX (tm)?

January 12, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterA concerned student

Dear concerned student,
Now that the odious Cowboys have been eliminated from the playoffs, I am utterly indifferent about the remaining teams. Well, that's not entirely true; I hate Belicheck, so I would be happy if the Patriots lost.
Who are you, concerned student? Reveal yourself.

Do you recall any concerned students approaching you in a near-vacant english corridor?

January 12, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterA concerned student

I do not, but now I am thoroughly creeped out.

January 12, 2015 | Registered CommenterMonsoon Martin

Well now I can never reveal myself.

I'm entertained by this dialog, and am waiting for the plot to thicken. Where did I put that flour?

This is FBI Agent Alonzo Moseley. Monsoon Martin has gone into our Witness Protection Program and has begun a new life in an undisclosed location.
