Farewell Dickie!

WCVB has announced that Dick Albert is retiring, with his last broadcast being 2/26. Harvey Leonard will take on Albert's duties at 5 and 6PM. Farewell and good luck Dickie!

Now, how does the extra Harvey Leonard affect the French Toast Alert level?

Oh, sure, we're going to get 'a little light snow,' tonight, yeah, we believe you Dickie

Or as Lori Magno puts it:

So I must have missed the updated forecast that went from 3-6" to the 16+" we received since Saturday night.

There is a big difference between sleet and freezing rain

Dick Albert educates us:

... Sleet is small pellets of ice that bounce as they hit the ground and the ice pellets do not stick to objects. Freezing rain is liquid that falls as drops and freezes to objects upon contact. ...
