Pishing down, with snow!
It wasn't much, but enough to make traveling stressful and idiots slide all over the place.
Yellow warning is our lowest level warning.
As someone who's seen snow up close once, it seems kind of cool. Like turning your commute into a rally stage
We get about 3 months a year of snow where I live (and 5 months of below freezing. Used to be a proper 5 months of snow not 25 short years ago but climate change has shifted that noticeably) the snow is absolutely magical and I can't imagine living somewhere that doesn't get it. Yes it makes a mess of commutes and drivers who don't know how to drive in snow (literally just drive like a grandma, and of course make sure you have "all season" tires not those touring tires that are the default) and yeah whatever snow accumulates on the sidewalk and driveways you need to clear off, but you just do what you gotta do and appreciate the wonderland the snow turns the world into
It's fun until you realize most people don't have the driving skills necessary for that.
