So much for Round 1 of the great winter storm watch. I had a feeling this was going to happen.

I somehow managed to make it into work this morning, despite the dire predictions that we would be buffeted with a winter storm. Here’s an update at 7 a.m. It hasn’t arrived yet.

Maybe it’s going to the north of us, slamming into the Lehigh Valley and Poconos. You know they have now somehow morphed into part of the infamous northern and western suburbs.

For some reason, 12 schools have decided to either close or open late. I hope none of them are in Delaware County. The big news, as I just heard from our friends on TV, is that the roads are dry. How’s that for a headline.

Hey, maybe I’ll be proven wrong. Maybe it’s still en route. I’ll believe it when it gets here, and even then it sounds like for our area it’s going to be a rain event.

Doesn’t matter. It’s likely snowing somewhere. And that means big news for TV.

Besides, even if this storm misses us, another storm is forecast for Sunday.

Stay tuned.
