"A severe winter storm, with near blizzard conditions, is forecast to hit the region Friday Feb 5 through Saturday Feb 6. Be prepared to shelter in place for 3 to 5 days. Please stay off the roads. Snow crews will plow primary and secondary roads first for emergency vehicles. It may take 36-48 hours after the snow stops before County plows can get to residential streets. Removal and treatment may take several days."
The forecasters called it right this time. We planned to go into Philadelphia to celebrate First Friday with friends, but the forecasts scared us off and we stayed closer to home. Tried a new French Bistro BYOB in Ardmore, I had moules frites, and warm goat cheese salad, delicious. The snow was beginning to fall when we left the restaurant at 9:00pm and fell softly all night. Our friends stayed for a drambuie nightcap and stepped out a few hours later to a winter wonderland. All our outside christmas lights are down except for the ones threaded around the Japanese maple on the front path. It looks more like a cactus than a christmas tree and I find the lights cheery on cold winter nights.
