Ok...I am calling it off.
It's still snowing, and here's the National Weather Service bulletin from tonight:
.TONIGHT...MOSTLY CLOUDY. A CHANCE OF SNOW SHOWERS IN THE EVENING...
THEN SNOW SHOWERS LIKELY OVERNIGHT. SNOW ACCUMULATION OF AN INCH
OR TWO POSSIBLE. LOWS IN THE LOWER 20S. NORTH WINDS AROUND 10 MPH.
CHANCE OF SNOW 60 PERCENT.
.SATURDAY...PARTLY SUNNY. HIGHS IN THE LOWER 30S. NORTHWEST WINDS
15 TO 20 MPH WITH GUSTS UP TO 35 MPH.
I really wanted to do this. I am not willing to suffer hypothermia just to prove that I can still do it. There were a few brave souls at the bridge when I went to look at the water level. They were there for the same thing. We all discussed the whole situation and were mostly of the mind that if it wasn't called off, it should be.
I vote for warmer weather. I'm either getting smarter or I'm old.
