Madison WI got 6" of snow on Dec 1 along with sleet and freezing rain. Emails abound about how best to clear the sidewalk and one-stage versus 2-stage snow blowers. The storm caused the cancellation of the AOS Solstice party - which made national news. An Alberta clipper went through on Dec 4 and dropped another 4" and everyone seemed to still make it to work, while the threat of 1" in DC results in school delays and closures along with traffic jams. This photo is off the porch in Steve/Betty's house around noon on Dec 5. With these condition, Anne still headed to Baltimore for a conference while I decided to stay at the house and work to avoid commuting frustrations. It'll be embarrassing if I'm the only one at NOAA who decided to stay at home....
