Hey Baltimore friends: the forecast is for a bunch of freezing rain this afternoon. You are probably tempted to shovel some snow this morning, but it’s much easier to clean up snow with ice on top than ice on pavement. Just wait. Take care of the snow afterwards – it’s not going anywhere this week.

If you do shovel, now's the time, so a layer of snow can get down before the freezing rain comes

I guess, but it’s just as easy to wait. And mucking around in the snow on shoved pavement can leave an icy layer below the new snow, especially if you walk over the snow and leave behind those icy footprints.

Yeah, I waited too long anyway - it's freezing rain here in Catonsville.
