[Swlfest] Thursday's eastern PA weather may be iffy (was: Re: Canadian update)

["Richard Cuff" <rdcuff@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Sheldon -- the weather down here in PA may be an annoyance into the
afternoon.

They tell us to expect snow changing to sleet, lasting from roughly 6
AM local time to 4 PM local time.  Total accumulation of 1-3 inches
expected.

The heaviest pocket of snow -- where 6-9 inches could potentially
accumulate -- looks to be near Binghamton, NY.  It will start there at
roughly 6 AM as well.

Safe travels, everyone!
