We might see freezing on Sunday. And no snow--oh, it pretends to snow, but there's nothing to show for the effort. Except a lot of car crashes from a thin glaze of ice left behind.

The Great Lakes have only 14% ice cover...so there will be lots of evaporation, lowering the water levels. There's snow accumulating in Canada, maybe some of that will fill in the gap.

Christmas flew by, but winter is dragging.
