In the past hour it switched over to sleet here in Newtown, CT. The accumulating snow appears to be done - we got about 8 inches. So just a standard run-of-the-mill March winter storm in these parts. We usually get our last winter storm around this time of year. In a couple of weeks, we'll all be thinking about spring. I was talking to my office in Manhattan and the streets there are just slushy and wet. If I had gone in, I would have had just a normal day. Well at least I'm getting my paperwork and reports all caught up with.
Almost without fail, the biggest hyped storms turn out to be duds. It's the surprise storms that tend to clobber us. And these forecasts are done by the same people who are 100% sure of global warming years from now!
