WE KNOW MORE IS TO COME OVER
THE NEXT 24 HOURS.
CHRIS WILL HAVE MORE COMING UP.
THANK YOU, MOLLY.
SINCE TODAY IS A HOLIDAY,
MOST SCHOOLS AND GOVERNMENT
OFFICES WERE CLOSED.
A LOT OF KIDS WERE ABLE TO GO
OUTSIDE AND HAVE FUN IN THE
FRESH SNOW.
MANY OF THEM DID THIS ON SKIS
AND SNOWBOARDS.
ANGELA DAVIS IS LIVE AT COMO
PARK.
Reporter: THEY HAD A GOOD
TIME.
BUT WE HAVE A LIGHT FREEZING
RAIN FALLING RIGHT NOW, BUT
EARLIER TODAY IT WAS LIGHT SNOW
AND THERE WERE A LOT OF PEOPLE
WHO COULD NOT BE HAPPIER ABOUT
IT.
ST. PAUL IS HOME TO A VERY
POPULAR SKI SCHOOL FOR LITTLE
KIDS.
IT IS THE COMO PARK SKI CENTER.

WITH FREEZING RAIN.

Reporter: THIS SEVEN YEAR
OLD SPENT THE DAY WITH HIS
GRANDFATHER. YOU GO REAL FAST
ON THE ICE AND THEN YOU HIT THE
SNOW WHEN YOU HIT THE BRAKES
AND SO IT IS INTERESTING SKIING.
Reporter: INTERESTING.
THAT SOUNDS PAINFUL.
IF YOU DO IT WRONG, IT CAN
BE PAINFUL.
Reporter: NOT EVERYONE HAD
THE DAY OFF.
MANY OF THEM HAD TO SPEND TIME
SCRAPING WINDSHIELD AND WINDOWS
BEFORE THEY COULD GO TO WORK.
HE WAS AMAZED HOW QUICKLY THINGS
CHANGED IN JUST A FEW HOURS.
JUST YESTERDAY IT WAS NOT
THAT BAD OUT HERE.
Reporter: ARE YOU READY FOR
WINTER TO BE OVER? YES BUT
WINTER WILL BE BACK AGAIN.
Reporter: IT KEEPS COMING
BACK.
LET ME TELL YOU WHAT WAS
INTERESTING FOR ME TODAY.
IT WAS WATCHING THE CONDITIONS
CHAIN PERIOD -- CHANGE.
THE RAID WAS WET AND SLUSHY AND
THEN IT STUCK TO THE WINDSHIELD
WIPERS AND THEN IT BECAME SNOW
AND NOW IT IS THIS LIGHT
FREEZING DRIZZLE.
BUT THE THING THAT HAS BEEN
