65
00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:24.039

66
00:03:24.080 --> 00:03:26.319
<v Speaker 1>hour or so of snow, and then it's just going

67

68
00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:31.599

69
00:03:31.639 --> 00:03:34.000
<v Speaker 1>going to feel like it's in the single digits today, clear,

70
00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:37.000

72
00:03:39.759 --> 00:03:42.919
