Winter weather advisory ended at 0700 on this, snow day number (N): seems like Fridays have been snowdays by default these last several weeks. A sleet downpour last night – never seen anything quite like it – and much slipping and sliding during the pre-bedtime dogchildren outdoor ablutions. Settled to flurries by this morning's waking; probably an inch of snow under a deep unknown quantity of ice – though, to judge by the current snowstate, we could end up with a lot more than that. Or not... Closer and closer to knowing what the next chunk of this new-thing-a-decade-old is; the dogchildren require sustenance / back to work / the day awaits.
