Snow and ice

Yeah, it's that time again.

Rain/snow/ice mix forecast for Fort Smith starting, well, just about any time now. It'll allegedly continue until late Thursday afternoon. Maybe two inches of it.

Ugh.

UPDATE: Well, we got maybe an inch of snow last night. The streets were clear. No slipping and sliding at all. Today, it's like 50 outside, so all the snow is gone.

Honestly, it was almost a perfect snowfall for Fort Smith.

And, sadly, though the snow was wet and sticky I never found a good target for a snowball. I threw one, but it was at a tree and not a person.
