Here's the forecast for tonight:
Considerable cloudiness with occasional rain showers. Some mixed winter precipitation possible. Low 33F. Winds S at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 50%.
So on the strength of that forecast, county officials are freaking out. The county highway department people told one of our reporters they are getting both snowplows ready.
Both. As in two.
If you aren't from the South, this is freaking hilarious.
*****************************
It turned out to be, of course, a false alarm. The temperature remained above freezing overnight and other than a little sleet about 11 p.m., we just had rain off and on. No snow. No ice storm. No need for both of the county's snowplows.
Even so, a few daycare centers and others had a one-hour delay Tuesday morning. I have no idea why.
