It's Ba-a-ack

Our off-again, on-again, off-again blizzard is back on, again. This from the National Weather Service:

".. HAZARDOUS WINTER CONDITIONS IN ANCHORAGE LATER TODAY...
A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM TRACKING NORTH UP COOK INLET TODAY HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BRING A SHORT PERIOD OF HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS TO THE ANCHORAGE AREA LATE THIS AFTERNOON. WINDS HAVE INCREASED RAPIDLY TO NEAR 80 MPH ALONG TURNAGAIN ARM AND PORTIONS OF THE HILLSIDE THIS MORNING... AND WILL CONTINUE THROUGH EARLY EVENING. AS THE LOW TRACKS CLOSER TO ANCHORAGE IN THE EARLY AFTERNOON HOURS... WINDS WILL SPREAD NORTHWARD AND AFFECT THE ANCHORAGE BOWL. SOUTHEAST WINDS OF 20 TO 30 MPH WITH GUSTS TO 45 MPH ARE POSSIBLE BY LATER IN THE AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EVENING. WIDESPREAD SNOW WILL ALSO DEVELOP AROUND THE TIME THESE WINDS MOVE INTO THE ANCHORAGE AREA... CREATING THE POTENTIAL FOR BLOWING SNOW AND SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED VISIBILITY DURING THE AFTERNOON RUSH HOUR."

Bring it on ... we're ready

They're just trying to keep you guessing. LOL. I hope you get your snow. We're supposed to get something this weekend, but we'll see.
