Winter Storm Update

As of right now, snow has stopped falling in Starkville and most of the state.  Total accumulations across Starkville range from 4 to 6 inches.  Areas north of Starkville, around Tupelo and toward the Tennessee line received anywhere from 5 to 7 inches of snow.  Areas just to the south and west of Starkville saw less snow, receiving only 2 to 3 inches.  Temperatures are still in the lower 30s just around freezing, so partial melting is occurring on the roads.  However, overnight as colder air moves in expect temperatures to drop below freezing to around 25, which will refreeze most of the water on roadways and other surfaces.

Mississippi State is still planning on opening at 11AM Thursday. I think they should just cancel class completely, BUT if there are any changes I will update this.
