Well, the four to six inches forecast for last night and this morning did not materialize. However, after the snow advisories were canceled and we were told it would clear this afternoon, it started snowing instead. And kept snowing. While the weather service kept insisting that there would be little or no accumulation, somewhere between one and two inches piled up both in Harvard and at home. Stopped now, but the next snow is due as early as Thursday.
