It
may be that Mother Nature got a little tipsy over the New Year and
as such became the life of the party, giving us all "something to
talk about."
On New Year morning, many folks woke up to a rather hefty coating of
ice. The recorded total was a one-quarter inch of accumulation of
ice on power lines and trees. Fortunately, the temperatures were
warm enough that it didn't cause a lot of issues on roadways. The
high winds that were forecasted also did not materialize locally,
which spared some tree and line breakages.
As the weekend continued, so did the weather events, with two
snowfall events making for a total of four for the season thus far.
Remember, we're due for 16. According to the old wives' tale the
date of the first tracking snowfall marks the number of snowfalls
for the season. The first tracking snow was on December 16th.
