Here in NB it started snowing at about 7 AM yesterday, with nice, light, "dry" snow. By 9 AM it had changed to a driving rain which washed away all the new snow and much of the old. Then the rain stopped and the sun came out. Little did I realize that this was just the "eye of the storm" passing over, so I headed out to do some Christmas shopping. I was in transit on the interstate, when it suddenly became dark, and before I knew it, I was driving in white-out conditions. Between Zero viz and the fact that the snow was heavy and wet, traffic had slowwed to a crawl. This IS New England, so I was expecting a heat wave soon after (it never came).
