As the ancient prophecies foretold, the forecast of snow/freezing rain/rain unfolded on schedule and for a time there were seas of slush on the streets and lapping up onto sidewalks. But the rain was initially so relentless that it obliterated the seas of slush in short order. The following day was mild with only a few sprinkles, allowing the excess water to dry up and safely drain away. We are still left with copious amounts of snow on lawns, fields, trails and the sidewalks of Bad People.
The forecast ahead looks mild and mostly wet, so pretty normal for this time of year. The remaining snow should be gone in a few weeks, perhaps less.
THEN IT MUST NOT SNOW AGAIN THIS WINTER.
Also, no cheating by waiting until it is technically spring, either (late March). I walked past the Brunette River trail today. I predict it will be snow-free when it is technically spring (late March). I wish I was engaging in hyperbole but there’s no way in the entire universe I could be wrong about this.
Also also, my next post will not be weather-related.
