There's a storm comin'

First of all...if I haven't mentioned it before..I HATE SNOW! I'm not a cold weather person at all. If it weren't for the cattle, I'd pack up and move FAR south. I'm sure the gov't agency I work for would hold my job open for me until I got warm.


Snow and Ice Storm Timeline

Yesterday - we set the stage for the approaching southern winter storm with an explanation of the weather factors involved.
Today, let's give you a timeline of events.First off, winter storm watches and warnings and heavy snow warnings are posted from the Four Corners eastward to western Tennessee and western Kentucky.
The storm is already in progress over the Four Corners with heaping amounts of mountain snow just beginning to fall over the various mountains of Utah, Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico.
The action, however, doesn't really begin until Wednesday night.Snow will really begin to come down over the northern and central mountains of New Mexico.A mix of sleet and freezing rain will then spread east into eastern New Mexico and the panhadles of Texas and Oklahoma late tonight.
By Thursday morning, that mix will then begin to changeover to all snow as subfreezing air saturates all levels of the atmosphere.

Significant accumulations of snow are anticipated in this area.

If you live in an area that gets snow all the time..I'M SORRY. I didn't grow up with the white stuff and Okies get real stupid when the roads get slick. My car has a monitor on it for temperature and road conditions, and I swear it says "stupid go home" when the roads are slick. Of course nobody but me sees it, but I do what it says!

Everybody be careful...and if you live east of me..this is a warning that it's comin' your way. If it's the least bit slick, I'm keeping my hiney at home and in the sewing room. I'm just hoping that we don't lose power. They're predicting 2" of ice...and the electricity won't stay on with that kind of weight on the lines.
