just happened this morning Snow: 1" in courtesy weather.com (02721)

I thought that was the light snow/snow shower icon, and the one with 3 coming out of the cloud and 2 below them was the "snow" icon... Maybe I'm just thinking of the XL icons set...

BTW, I still say November 19, because one of my local mets said: "An accumulating snow could be possible a few days before Thanksgiving. I'll talk about it more when the time gets closer."

I checked accuweather and snow is in the forecast from Nov 19-Nov 21.

My break is Dec 17th through Jan 18.

A Christmas Break starting on my birthday, December 17. That would be nice...

We need a good 2 week Christmas Playlist or longer. Preferably December 10-December 26.

Our school has a special program for veterans, but no day off. There's no point to letting us take the day off, since Thanksgiving break starts a week later, and that lasts for 11 days.

My Thanksgiving Break only lasts for 4 days... How long is your Christmas Break?

$2.99 at several gas stations in Monroe, MI. Remember to round that off to $3 because the prices are actually $2.999. I expect those prices to remain the same through the holiday/travel season, then lower by January.

A freeze warning is dangerous for farmers/crops and should show up on a scroll on your IntelliStar. It always has for me.

BTW, a freeze warning shows up in orange on a 10 minute IntelliStar scroll.

November 19. It looks like a system with a colder air mass may reach the Great Lakes between November 18-21.

(On statistical average, the first flakes fall in Monroe, MI on November 11.)

So, for those who are in school, who has Veterans Day off? Apparently for my college, it doesn't exist on their calendars (therefore I have school.) 

I don't have Veterans Day off... 

The only national holidays I have off (that falls on a school day) is MLK Day, Presidents Day, Memorial Day, Labor Day, and Thanksgiving.

I give my first flakes one hour!

That was a fail... 

Precip dry up or not cold enough?

There was a lake effect snow shower just to my north. It disappated as it drifted southward towards me.
