Voiceless, DayQuil and Snow Squalls

The title of this one sums it up. Today and I sick with a cold, blowing my nose a LOT, my voice sounds cracks like an adolescent boy, occasionally coughing, taking DayQuil and looking at the forecast for this area which is under a Lake Effect Snow Warning and whose farcast for the next two days calls far 6-12 inches of snow with snow squalls. Snow sqaulls...seriously? Ugh. Never before has that been the sole descriptor in the forecast. Not good.

Here's what the Weather Channel said for this area:
"LAKE EFFECT SNOW WILL BECOME HEAVIER THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT AND CONTINUE UNTIL LATE FRIDAY NIGHT BEFORE STARTING TO TAPER OFF. THUNDER MAY ALSO OCCUR IN SOME OF THE HEAVIER SQUALLS ALONG WITH AREAS OF BLOWING AND DRIFTING SNOW.

SNOW ACCUMULATION TODAY MAY REACH UP TO 3 INCHES LOCALLY IN THE HIGHER TERRAIN. ACCUMULATION TONIGHT OF 1 TO 4 INCHES IS EXPECTED WITH LOCALLY 6 INCHES POSSIBLE IN THE HIGHER TERRAIN WITH SIMILAR AMOUNTS EXPECTED FRIDAY. BY SATURDAY MORNING... SOME AREAS COULD SEE BETWEEN ONE AND ONE AND A HALF FEET OF SNOW FROM THIS LAKE EFFECT EVENT."

Isn't it funny that they like to put the warnings in all CAPS? I also laugh because they called it a "lake effect event." So, I'd better go get more NyQuil before these squalls find me. Boo to snow!
