Sharon in New York

Not-quite daily blab.

Our first snow?

Has the time has finally come? The biggest experience we attributed to New York? The one event we were excited about...but wondered if we could make it through? ...Will it snow?

Tonight will be a low of 17, with a 40% chance of snow...Tomorrow's (Monday's) temperature will be a high of 22 and a low of 18 with a 30% chance of snow. Will it just be a tease again? There was a chance of snow a month ago, but it ended up being just misty rain that formed little tiny ice crystals on your jacket. Last week, I saw my first ice puddles, but then the weather went back to its average 34 degrees a day later.

Last year this time, a major blizzard had already blown through and the rest of the season was terrible. This year is quite mild. But what I don't get...for example...the temperature today is going to be a high of 47, and a low of 17?! That's quite a bridge of temperature! And after tomorrow's "chance of snow", Tuesday will be low of 36, Wednesday a low of 44, and Thursday a low of 44. It's like Florida weather. How could the temperature be so back and forth?
