A major winter storm will pass just south of us tomorrow, causing lots of trouble for those more rural than ourselves. We will be under the northern wing of the storm and so will be spared from the full brunt of it. But while the major forecasters disagree on the amount of snow that we will see tomorrow, I think that I will have to agree with Tom Skilling and make a prediction of four inches or more of "fluffy" snow, starting slowly in the morning and increasing as the day continues.

The big computer models are predicting a warming trend next week which would turn this snow into the ugly patches of slush that we all love so much. There will still be time for snow before Christmas, so don't fret if you've been dreaming of the lovely old cliché.
