FOR FRIDAY 1/18/24


Definitely had a learning moment with the loss due to delays called for Wednesday.  I was far too confident that the roads would get cleared.  It was too cold for that.

For Friday, predictions are fairly solid and uniform for 1-3 inches in Lancaster County.  Some, citing a potential inverted trough, are saying we could get 4-6.   Seems unlikely we’ll get no snow. Looking back at the week, the snow fell on the roads, and since they were very cold and the snow was the light and fluffy kind, it was difficult for plows to get that last half-inch off the road, leaving it very slippery, even after the snow stopped.  In order to not have a closing, this would have to drastically underperform, calls would have to wait until morning to see if it’s snowing, and superintendents would have to risk very slippery roads.  I’m convinced we will have a SNOW DAY CANCELLATION FRIDAY.
