The sleet/rain mix we had overnight turned to mostly rain. Temps have risen from the 31-32 mark to 35.8 at this report.
A limited "State of Emergency" was posted late yesterday in anticipation of the bad weather and all State offices were closed with only essential personel needing to come in. Many local schools were also closed. Most of these were due to the anticiapted flooding and vol. evactuations posted yesterday, as some of these schools were used for shelters.
