blizzard of uncertain precipitation

Last night James checked the snow day predictor and it was only 5%. But when we woke up in the morning, the buses were cancelled in anticipation of the storm. So James had a snow day. And by the afternoon it was blizzardy. I was running all day. I had a late training session so I didn't leave the office until 7pm. By then things had quieted down weather wise. I'm not sure what the precipitate was when I was walking home- a somewhat spiky rain.
