Could someone settle a bet? The Weather Channel website says it is snowing in Enid as of 9 am. The Nation Weather Service says rain. Anybody live in/near Enid?

[mrowl]

I hate the news around here. They ALREADY have reporters watching the sand trucks, and standing out on the highways. waiting.....................

[sanantoniosooner]

Supposed to hit 70 today.

I don't think popping getems back is gonna tell the weather... but those chiros do have some funny ideas. :eek:

I figured he'd use his awesome set of divining rods or whatever they use. ;)

[achiro]

It's more of a slush, snow, rain sort of thing. But definitaly snow flakes in it. It started sometime between 830 and 900.

In Dallas, when the front hits, the two lead stories on the news will be...

Sand trucks are gassed up and ready to go and....

OH WHAT ABOUTTHE HOMELESS???!!! They'll station some pretty young thing in front of the largest homeless shelter, she'll put on the fake, concerned face... and will bemoan what is going to happen to those poor homeless people who don't have enough sense to come to a shelter!!! :rolleyes:

[Mjcpr]

I think the cold front is in Tulsa. 50 on the north side, 72 on the south. :eek:

Heh. I've noticed the same thing. I wonder what the excuse will be when they build that taxpayer-funded trillion dollar homeless shelter thing that passed last year.

The other thing to expect is dozens of accidents the moment it starts sprinkling. Man, drivers in DFW are the succ.

[Fugue]

Up here in Teh, we have little ice bullets coming down now, plus thunder. weird

you didn't hear? its already over-budget and will cost 2 trillion dollars. So there will be another bond election to fund it. And they will hide it a different bond package entitled "funds for happy fun parks that include hot babes lounging on the benches"

[BajaOklahoma]

I like the tornado watch with the winter storm warning.

And the lead story on 11 at 5 PM was the news chick from Tulsa saying that there was no snow or standing water on the highways up there.

[BeetDigger]

Is she hawt?

[mrowl]

ARGHHH!!! employees. This was my email..............................

PEOPLE! IT WAS 80 TODAY AND YESTERDAY!!! The roads are very WARM. Rain, Sleet, Ice, Snow, crap falling from the sky is NOT going to stick to the ROAD!

[soonerboomer93]

[KC//CRIMSON]

Ice buckets and 26 degrees with a wind chill of 12. Tomorrow 6 to 8 inchs of snow in the KC metro.

It succs, hard.

[C&CDean]

I don't give a **** what it's doing now. I'm scheduled to land in OKC tomorrow at 8:10 pm, and my brother who's flying in from Denver is scheduled to land at 7:40. What's it gonna be doing tomorrow night?

I think the snow's supposed to stop tomorrow evening. So there's a fighting chance.

[picasso]

my forecast? dark and cloudy with chance of drive-by.

4:35 flight outta BWI into St. Louis. St Louis to OKC. I better be on time dammit.

[OUDoc]

St Louis may be bad as well....

[C&CDean]

You ain't helping here doc.

[OUWxGuesser]

I move from Oklahoma to North Dakota to continue grad school in meteorology. Soon after reaching the Dakotas,I see more tornadoes in South Dakota than I did in the state of OK during my 6 years at OU. Now we can't get snow worth a crap... the latest system only dropped about 1/2 inch. Meanwhile, the state of Oklahoma has the potential to get dumped on and end up with more snow than we've had all season (~1.5 in)

Hmm....

Damn you global warming (kidding)!

[OUDoc]

You ain't helping here doc.
Yeah, I realized that.

Maybe if you mailed yourself home....

Ain't nuthing like a little winter weather to bring out the hillbilly entertainment around here.

[PhxSooner]

I was out today and some guy talked about it being cold enough to snow. It was 50 degrees at the time.:rolleyes:

Hope it clears up at home. My parents are headed to Norman for the bball game Saturday.

[Soonerus]

Weather is nasty tonight, all schools closed tomorrow....

[PhxSooner]

Weather is nasty tonight, all schools closed tomorrow....
Now see, that's what I miss about Oklahoma. Not that it was great for the parents who had to go to work, but the feeling of going back to sleep when you hear the news from your mom that school was cancelled was greatness. My poor kids still don't understand the whole snow thing.

[OklahomaTuba]

Lucky as hell to get back from Orlando this evening with no problems except flying in sleet and lightning. Freaky.

I hate going from 80 degree weather to freezing weather. Shoulda stayed in Orlando till I left for KC.

[OU-HSV]

Just looked outside, my back patio is icy and so is my vinyl siding and bricks. Now I'm faced w/a dilema. Do I drive my light truck to work tomorrow w/nothing in the bed of it. Or do I take my 2 wheel drive Grand Cherokee? I'm thinking the Cherokee will be a little heavier in the back.

[achiro]

Just got back from Tulsa. 412 hwy from Sand Springs to the Stoolwater exit sucked ***...hard!!! There were cars and trucks off the road all over the place. I had one wipe out as it was trying to pass me, slid and took a hard left, then back right barely missing me and hit the bridge piling head on!:(

man, about 8 years ago I was caught in a sleet storm driving back that route. I was in my toyota cressida which is a snow driving machine!
anyway I was driving about 60 (not very smart) when I came up on a convoy cruising about 45. I pass 'em and this poor sap in an old Ford truck decides to follow. dude starts spinning in circles, slides up the underneath the side of an overpass and down into the center median! ooooops.:O

then as I'm exiting at Mannford I see a lady merge into traffic and spin 2 times into the center median on the opposite side. heh.
