Winter Storm Alert, Indoor Events, and Outdoor Explorations - Burlington Local Frequency

Published 3 months, 1 week ago
Description
Good morning, this is your Burlington Local Frequency for Wednesday, January 14th.

We're waking up to a winter weather alert this morning as a significant storm system moves through our region. The National Weather Service is calling for between four and six inches of snow to fall throughout tonight and into Thursday morning. What makes this system particularly tricky is the timing. We're starting with rain this afternoon as temperatures hover above freezing, but as night falls, that precipitation will transition to heavy snow with rates potentially reaching three-quarters of an inch per hour before dawn. If you're commuting tomorrow morning, give yourself extra time and proceed with caution. Road conditions should improve by evening, but temperatures are expected to plummet well below zero Thursday night with wind chill values dipping into the negative teens.

On a brighter note, there's plenty happening around our community to keep you entertained indoors or for quick outings before the snow really picks up. Tonight at Burlington Beer Company, The Moth is hosting its New Leaf storytelling event starting at seven o'clock. This is specifically designed for first-timers who've never told a story on a Moth stage before, so if you've been thinking about sharing your own tale about new beginnings or fresh starts, tonight's your perfect opportunity. Doors open at six-fifteen.

If you're in the mood for culture, the Burlington City Arts Center is hosting a gallery talk with artists John Killacky and Jordan Douglas this evening at six o'clock. They'll be discussing their work in the exhibition Do We Say Goodbye, which explores themes of grief, loss, and mourning. Over at the Flynn, they're screening the first part of Martin Scorsese's Bob Dylan documentary, No Direction Home, also starting at seven this evening. Part two screens next week on the twenty-first.

Looking ahead to the weekend, the Flynn is hosting Caterpillar Soup from January twenty-third through the twenty-fifth, a weekend-long festival celebrating storytelling and solo performance with workshops and performances throughout.

For those who want to get outside when the weather clears, there's a Tree ID and Natural History Tour happening at Red Rocks Park in South Burlington on Sunday, January twenty-fifth from ten in the morning until noon. Vermont Master Naturalist Gene Desideraggio will be leading the tour.

This has been Burlington Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
