OK the snow report seems that we can get this in so I'll be leaving at
6:30 to downtown and hopefully we can get home :)
Snow. Snow may be heavy at times after midnight. Snow accumulation of 4
to 8 inches. Near steady temperature around 30. East winds 5 to 10
mph...becoming north 10 to 15 mph with gusts up to 30 mph after
midnight. Chance of snow near 100 percent.
