Today is the day where the phrase “if you don’t like the weather, wait a minute” comes to life:
8a - Snow on trees, heavy clouds, “freezing fog”
8:30 - Hazy sunshine, slight breeze
9a - Sunny
10a - Partly sunny
12:30 - Turns dark, windy.
1pm - Thunderstorm, snow squall, near white-out conditions
1:30 - Sunshine
3pm - Blue skies, windy
3:30p - Sky turns dark again
4pm - Snow squall, gusty winds
4:30 - Sun peeks through
4:40 - Clouds
5pm - Sunset,
6pm - Thunder, windy, snowing
6:30 - strong winds (20-40 mph)
When the sun peeked out in the afternoon I tried running downtown to take a picture of the clock tower lit up against the storm clouds. The sun, literally, disappeared while I was driving up the parking garage — a span of 3 minutes. Augh!
