Tuesday (K)night plans

My boss tells me that the weather forecast for the next 24 hours is sleet and freezing rain overnight, to be followed by 4 to 6 inches of snow during the day. Weather.com, which likes to shout, tells us that

A MIX OF SLEET AND FREEZING RAIN IS EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO THE REGION TUESDAY MORNING... THEN QUICKLY TURN OVER TO SNOW. THE SNOW... POSSIBLY HEAVY AT TIMES... WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND THEN INTO THE EVENING... GRADUALLY COMING TO AN END AFTER MIDNIGHT. TOTAL SNOWFALL ACCUMULATIONS OF 4 TO 8 INCHES ARE POSSIBLE WITH THIS STORM SYSTEM.

I really wanted to attend tomorrow's Java lecture, but I'm afraid I'll be busy dying of hypothermia in a snowdrift somewhere between my house and central campus.

At least your weather isn't back down to 30 below zero, like ours. :(

It's called a "wintry mix".

You can ride the bus back! Or, if you want to leave your home a bit earlier in the day, I can drive you around!

I think I already died in a snowdrift earlier this afternoon.

The only thing worse than freezing your butt off is freezing your butt off and not even being able to complain about it because people in Vermont and Nova Scotia are colder than you are.

BOOOOOOOOOOOO!

or having to ride in a truck on a snowy day with all the subconcious fear of getting into yet another accident.. that may suck

The title of this post totally flashed me back to high school where, on account of our mascot being the Knights, the word "Knight" was substituted for the word "Night" at every possible opportunity.
