Re: RPI & Union @ Princeton & Quinnipiac (1/10, 1/11)
The weathermen have really missed the call so far. All week they were telling us that friday would be clear and temps ranging from 46 down to 26. As of right now it is freezing rain at 29 degrees-multiple accidents on the GSP and local roads are slick. It will warm up some during the day and we expect just showers on and off from about 2PM onward. Tomorrow will be a different story-we should get considerable rain(1-2 inches) throughout the day. For anyone coming down-please be careful as the area around Princeton is very difficult to navigate in this weather-construction on routes 1 and 130 is constant and the signs are not exactly easy to see and read. Hoping for a fun time and a great RPI showing-go Red!!!!
After last weekend, I'll take wet if I can get it.
Saturday, I heard a forecast that there was a slight chance of freezing drizzle very early on Sunday that might make it slick in a few spots, but it would warm up and change to all rain by noon.
And as Sunday went along, the predictions for when it was supposed to warm up and change to rain kept moving the time back - and back - and back. I think the freezing rain finally stopped around midnight.
Wednesday, I heard there was a chance of snow, sleet, and maybe a little freezing rain very early on Friday, but it would eventually warm up into the 40's and everything would change over to rain by midmorning.
Today, the forecasted time for the changeover to rain has thus far progressed back to noon, and the forecasted high temperature is dropping toward the mid-30's.
This is getting rather uncomfortably reminiscent of last weekend.
