First snow of the year forecasted for Wednesday.

it's going to go from 70 on Tuesday, to high of 40 on Wednesday rain mixing with snow.
We still haven't had a freeze yet. So unless we get pounded by a Strom its not going to stick. All the same I think this afternoon we will get the plows ready.

I don't trust any of them, But I would rather be prepared for the snow.
I live in the shadows of the big horn mountains.

Same forecast down here in the corner.
Snow to 8000' wed and 7000 on fri.
Dusting at lower elevations.
I'm not ready, most of the leaves are still on the trees.

ALL THO if it does snow much it'll give me A LOT of tree work to do.

I'm going to get my plow out today, SWS has been out since yesterday. Trees still leafed out here in Casper too. Remember the October '98 storm? Here's to hoping...

Last November we got a three day Strom that dropped over a foot of heavy wet snow, and that was the only good Strom we got all year.
It's kind of funny I use to love the big snows, but now 2" at a time is what I love.

Every other day for the entire winter! A guy needs a break after a 14 hour day.

Light snow right now in Casper, 1-2 inches expected. Some is better than none!

3-6 everywhere but on pavement or asphalt. Truck was covered, deck was covered, streets and walks didn't even get icy. Crap.
