Our WLFI snowman is in jeopardy with most of our snow melting away today. Notice Adam Hall our videographer set up a snow television for our station snowman so he could watch his favorite channel and his one and only local television channel, News Channel 18. I am not on his good list after forecasting highs in the lower 40s today. It is too bad I could not find a train he could catch to the North Pole because by later today he may be all but gone. I will make sure to wrap him in ice cubes when I get to work later today. But he is made of December snow which we all know comes back to life when we get our next snow. Maybe I have been watching a few too many Christmas shows with my kids, but I still love them and there is no place I would rather be than with my kids by the Christmas tree watching holiday movies while eating popcorn. I absolutely love it! I may have to make up a nice bedtime story for my little Lauren about our WLFI snowman.
Tonight you may want to stay curled up under a blanket watching those timeless holiday classics because we have another coating of snow on the way or should I say snizzle or slush that will turn to ice. The snizzle is a snow and rain or drizzle combination so I gave it the name snizzle. I need to get the copyright on it! So our WLFI snowman will likely come back as the iceman and he will be the coolest dude in Lafayette. I will have to find him some shades. I will also have the latest on when you can expect all snow and when those icy roads will return make sure to check back. Notice I only have us in the half-inch range for accumulation tonight so iceman may be a little shorter, but that is okay. The big thing I am worried about is how just a little bit of measurable snow can cause huge problems on the roadways and the fact that wind chills may not be far from zero by tomorrow morning. Stay warm and safe!

Have a great day
Yeah, I still have to get some salt and other snow removal tools.
I'd rather have the snow than the ice and sleet though.
Would much rather have snow than the ice!
I Love your snowman Mike!! :-)

I agree would like to know as well, when is the deep freeze going to hit, I heard Thurs, night.
Is Mike gone today? Miss his updates on the blog. Hope he doesnt have the Laf. flu
No he's on the news right now. I noticed that he didn't update his blog this afternoon too. Maybe he's been too busy watching the radar! He did say that we might be in for more snow tonight than originally forecasted.
I woke up and checked your forecast, i have to drive to the office tomorrow which is in Sheridan. I am in Monticello, looks like i may not be going in early if at all if this freezes up! Snizzle keeps me home safe n warm :)
