Snow Returns, Reminds Everyone It’s Kind Of Gross

And there we go: First snowfall of the season, a 1.6-inch coating that, uh, didn’t really bother anyone all that much. It was kind of disgusting out, though.

But, more importantly: How did the local stations do in predicting it? Fox is actually in first — they were the only station to call for over an inch. Lowest score wins, and Fox still as zero points. NBC is incompetently already five points behind Fox, which may be hard to ridiculously easy to make up, I don’t know.

With only 1.6 inches of snow it’s not really enough for any sort of winter fun. But in Easton somebody put up signs threatening a $300 fine for sledding. The mayor and City Council don’t know where they came from; they just sort of showed up one day.

Dan Brettell, of Palmer Township (duh), does make a good point in the NBC 10 report, though:

“What is the city going to do when there’s 250 people? Come here with entire police force from Forks and Palmer townships and start handing out $300 fines? I doubt it.”

Yes, I doubt it too, Dan. I mean, when can you get the Forks Township police force to ever go into Easton?
