Very brief update tonight as it is late. Storm to fringe us tomorrow still on schedule. Track of the system has not changes. Once it hits Haterras, it will continue NE and out into the North Atlantic. Precip tomorrow will start before daybreak, a bit earlier than originally thought. It will be a mix of snow and sleet to start and may very well remain frozen for a good portion of the day. The key here is everything will be very light! This is not a major storm. We will be getting fringed by the Northern part of the precip shield, so do not expact major problems. Temps at this hour are still near 40, so I don't see a big threat of freezing rain for Delaware County. Expect the light mix, which could turn to plain rain showers, to end by early afternoon. High tomorrow in the upper 30s. Next threat is late in the weekend. Looks warm at this time as a similar system evolves. This one may have a few tricks up it's sleeve, so plenty of time to fine tune things. So, not a big deal Thursday, more of a nuisance wintry mix early then drying out by afternoon. Take care!!
