If I remember correctly last year, there were two events the week before the derby. One was heavy snow and the other was heavy snow with some mixing. I think total accumulation from the two was around 15". This will be a lighter snow event in regards to water content. I can't imagine it will be like last year. Last year it wasn't slush where I was...just plain stading water on top of the ice. It was a miserable mess!
