Snow? Yeah, that’s snow on the ground…sort of

Yep, that's a bit of snow on the ground this morning. Over in West Virginia, they have six inches or more but what fell here overnight was just enough to make the ground seem almost white.

The thermometer read 21 when I got up at 5:00 a.m. today and might reach 31 at the height of the day so the wet conditions will bring black ice on back roads and slick conditions on bridges.

Snowfalls are rare these days. Not like the 50s and 60s when snow fell from October to February (and sometimes March) and today's forecasts calls for light snow showers with all precipitations ending by 6 p.m.

Overnight lows will remain below freezing throughout the week but highs are expected to reach 46 degrees on Thursday and the low 40s for the weekend.

So enjoy it while it lasts.
