For the last few days the National Weather Service has reported of another major winter storm set to hit the Mid-Atlantic region Wednesday through Friday with today, Thursday seeing the brunt of it. Residents of Cecil County Maryland and New Castle County Delaware are waiting for this snow. Weather maps show the area covered in a pretty blue color that signifies snow in the area. I have to tell ya folks, this girl has only seen a few flurries so far.
Weather the snow falls or not is not a big deal for me personally. I have to admit this winter has been quite profitable for me. Each time a winter storm watch or warning is issued for the area I write about it and publish it. I rake in revenue fairly quickly on account of it. I have to wonder... is this storm trying to make a significant snowfall only to find out the temperatures may be a little too warm for it?
Right now it is 35 degrees in Elkton, Maryland with very fine precipitation falling. Some times a few flakes fall, but mostly just the liquid stuff. I have a funny image in my head of the snow being the Little Engine That Could, churning along saying, "I think I can! I think I can!" Dropping it's frosty pellets only to have them melt before they hit the ground. Poor little winter storm that could(n't).
