Safe travels to all who are journeying to spend the holiday with relatives or special friends. We are expecting up to a foot of snow here on Moose Mountain with the first flakes expected around lunchtime. Fortunately the long trip to bring That Certain Nittany Lion back to State College isn't slated to begin until O-Dark-30 Friday morning.
