02/12 - For The Love of Friday

HERE IS THE LATEST FROM THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE:
HISTORIC WINTER STORM POISED TO IMPACT THE REGION SUNDAY AND MONDAY...
Impacts will begin as early as Saturday morning with patchy
freezing drizzle developing late tonight into Saturday morning,
which will lead to a light glaze of ice in some locations. After a
brief break in precipitation on Saturday, conditions will begin
to deteriorate late Saturday evening, with precipitation
transitioning from a sleet and freezing rain mix to all snow by
Sunday. The heaviest snow can be expected on Sunday and Monday.
High winds will lead to blowing and drifting snow with wind chills
falling to below zero by late Sunday. Snow will come to an end
during the day Monday, but extremely cold temperatures will
persist through mid-week. The heavy snow and forecast long
duration of extremely cold temperatures will likely lead to major
stress on the region`s infrastructure as well as crippling travel
for several days.
...WINTER STORM WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 6 AM SATURDAY TO 6 PM CST
MONDAY...
* WHAT...Heavy mixed precipitation expected. Total snow
accumulations of 3 to 6 inches and ice accumulations of a light
glaze. Strong winds will lead to blowing and drifting snow
reducing visibility to less than one mile at times. Wind chill
factors below zero are forecast on Sunday, continuing into
Monday and Tuesday.
* WHERE...Much of North and Central Texas.
* WHEN...From 6 AM Saturday to 6 PM CST Monday.
* IMPACTS...Travel will be dangerous. Hazardous conditions will
persist for several days given the expected prolonged duration
of extremely cold temperatures. The cold wind chills as low as
15 below zero could result in hypothermia if precautions are not
taken.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
Travel is highly discouraged on Sunday and Monday. If you must
travel, keep tools necessary for survival in extreme cold in your
vehicle.
The latest road conditions for Texas can be found at
drivetexas.org.
This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for North and Central Texas.
.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight.
Patchy freezing drizzle is possible this morning generally southeast
of a line from Temple to Athens and across most of the region
overnight. Accumulations are unlikely, but a thin glaze may
occasionally develop on area bridges and overpasses.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday.
Patchy freezing drizzle will be possible area-wide on Saturday, and a
light wintry mix is possible Saturday night.
Exceptionally cold conditions are likely this weekend through the
middle of next week. Wind chill values will fall to or below zero in
many areas starting Saturday night and continuing through at least
Tuesday.
Snow is expected across most of the region late Sunday through
Monday. Some significant accumulations may occur with temperatures
falling below 10 degrees and blustery conditions. Significant
disruptions to travel will likely result.
Another round of accumulating snow will arrive Tuesday night or
Wednesday. Additional travel impacts are possible.

Be careful. I hear you shouldn't mess with them.

 

For everyone wondering why @gener and I are freaking out a little, it's this. Ice is HEAVYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY. So much heavier than snow, so if we get a coating of ice THEN snow, everything breaks.

 

@ChrisTurk you're just jealous cause my computer is better. Keep it up and I'll get an even better one, brag to you about it, then to add insult to injury I will ask you the stupid questions so you can really appreciate how the tech is going to waste.
