Today was mostly sunny in the NYC area.

The snow is supposed to start falling tomorrow morning. They're saying the morning rush will be close to normal, but they're warning people to leave work early tomorrow if they can. The peak of the storm will be tomorrow night and Tuesday morning.

This is basically the worst combination of weather you can get in the Northeast. A coastal storm is working its way up with warm air and lots of moisture, and a cold front is pushing in from the west. This does two things:

1. It reduces the air temperature as the coastal storm moves through the area. Since cold air can't hold as much moisture as warm air, the result is a lot of precipitation. Folks who grew up in the Northeast may remember the sailor's creed: "Red skies in the morning, sailors take warning ... red skies at night, sailors delight!"

I was up early this morning, and we had a brilliant red sunrise the likes of which I haven't seen in years -- if at all. I don't think that's a good sign, folks. LOL.
