All right. Let's go now to News 12, Connecticut's Tom Krasowski at the Norwalk DPW Garage where crews are getting ready for some incoming snow. Tom. Yeah. Becky. It's just another day here for Norwalk DPW. They had quite a lot of activity lately. We've had snow already three times this month. We had that big rainstorm that also brought some mixing earlier last week and just all this ice. It's just another day here for Norwalk DPW. They're doing last minute preparations here. Salt already on the roads. It's roads have got that briny color to them. The storm itself today probably won't be too big, like Jonathan said, just about according to two inches, the worst of it coming in central and southern New Jersey, it's already snowing there. You've seen from our partners over at news 12 of New Jersey. But if it's already snowing there, that means it is coming up the coastline to us. Now, the thing that makes this storm particularly something to watch, even if it is only two inches is that's coming right during your commute. Our first flakes are probably expected around 10 a.m. will be live again as throughout the day as we're following this, but it also could linger throughout your commute coming in back. Now, we already have some icy conditions on some roads and it's cold enough where any snow that's coming down is going to continue to freeze and add to that. So keep your cars clean. Otherwise that ice is going to be on there forever and give yourself that extra breaking distance. We say it all the time, but it's extra important, especially as the snowfall is coming. One other thing to keep in mind, Connecticut is still in its state of warming, cold and cold weather protocol. Actually, those warming centers are up and active. We have much more info on that on our website as well as safe home heating tips. It's all stuff to keep in mind. We've been going through it a lot lately, but tis the season we'll be out here tracking the conditions as the first flakes start to come down in a couple of hours.
