It might be a good idea to work from home today. Your morning commute on Friday will be challenging as the snow has started falling already, at the time of writing. Take it easy today, and consider postponing any non-essential travel. The snow will lighten up at the tail end of the evening commute, but will continue to accumulate overnight and into Saturday. As the snow moves out Saturday afternoon, a cold front will move in, bringing well below normal temperatures for the first half of next week.
