Snow update for Mon 1/15 through Wed 1/17
We have increasing clouds (and even a few flurries!) already, so I figured it was time for an update.
Overnight from Monday into Tuesday, there's a slight chance of snow showers. Look for these anytime between 2am and 10am Tuesday. They'll be light and widely scattered. No accumulation or impacts.
The second "round" is the most consequential: snow begins by 1pm, continuing on and off till evening. Expect an inch or two of accumulation and slippery travel. May have some early dismissals and evening activities cancelled, that sort of thing.
And then "round three" is the potential for a bit of Wednesday morning snow, but right now this seems like a miss. Stay tuned for updates.
Follow up:
Percentages! I will do percentages this time for K-12 and for postsecondary (colleges and universities).
