When the snowfall comes down, especially within our timeframe Wednesday morning, wind throw is expected up to 25 km / h and temperatures are expected in the lower 20s. The snowfall ratio is expected to be 15 to one. This means that the snow that falls will be very easily dry and fluffy. This is good news in trying to cloud the snow away, which should be easier on the crucifix. However, the snow is plenty of light enough to be picked up by the wind and create problems with low visibility well after the storm system comes from the region.
