snowticipation

The feeling a teacher gets while waiting for the announcement of a school delay or cancellation due to snow. Snowticipation is closely followed by soul-crushing disappointment when school is on-time or by sheer elation when a delay or closure is confirmed.

Side effects of snowticipation include: frequent checking of local meteorologists' reports, refreshing school district's websites, and obsessively checking social media.

"There's a winter weather advisory - I won't be able to sleep due to snowticipation!"

songticipation 

The feeling of anticipation that you get for a certain song to play after hearing another song, due to past experience of hearing the the same songs in a specific order, perhaps from the original CD release, a personal playlist, etc.

You have a personal playlist that contains Hurt followed by Master of Puppets. You experience a situation where you hear the song Hurt. Hurt ends. You may get a strong sense of anticipation to hear Master of Puppets. That sense of anticipation is "songticipation".
