On Jan 5,2007 Mike Morgan has posted this 11 day forecast that on Jan 14-16 Oklahoma will be experiencing a major winter storm.
Just want to see how OFF the forecast will be. Posting the pic that should update itself. Im predicting 43, partly sunny on Jan 15th. :pop:

I heard that we may get some bad weather up here in the Woodward/Gage area starting Thursday. I'm getting prepared, just in case.

What makes me mad is this is hitting over the MLK weekend, so probably no school missed. :(

I just sent an email to Gary England asking what he thinks about any possible storm this weekend in my area, which is right up the road from where hes from. I wonder if he'll write back? :D

And completely ridiculous. You'd do just as well with an almanac to guess the weather 11 days from now.

Hmmm... How many recruits do we have coming in that weekend? Maybe they can get stranded here in Norman like Nichol did?
I know classes start again next Tuesday?

Stocking up on the Bacardi?Actually, when I was cleaning out my liquor cabinet for the holidays, I discovered I was a rum lover. I don't drink that often so I never knew that I had quite a selection. I seriously have as much rum as I do all the other liquors combined. For Christmas I got a beautiful bottle of Captain Morgans Private Stock. I plan to save that to share at my first pool party.
Gary England still hasn't emailed me back. I guess hes too busy.

Gary wrote me back. What a nice man.
It looks like some freezing drizzle and freezing rain possible on Friday up your way, with a chance of snow on Saturday..Turning much colder for many days.

Gary England grew up in a town next door to us. I went there yesterday to pick up some farm fresh eggs from my friend who does everything organically. Anyway, I saw a sign announcing that Gary England will be there tomorrow for a book signing, even though we are suppose to have freezing drizzle. I don't know if I have ever seen freezing drizzle. Is that a new term for slush?
I think Seattle owes Mike Morgan an apology.

Freezing drizzle is real bad. Coats everything with a thin slick glaze.
After reading the NWS info, this could be bad for Oklahoma, most like central and south. I rarely get caught up in gloom and doom, I even accused my MIL of watching Mike Morgan when she started going off on the winter weather. But this storm would concern me. They are even talking of freezing rain and sleet here in Houston on Monday/Tuesday...

Just one more minute, honey, I'm about to freezing drizzle.
That's inappropriate isn't it?

You know, weather.com has a totally different prediction. I mean, they're saying high of 34 on Monday, as opposed to the 18 predicted by Channel 4 right now. Basically local stations are saying "Killer winter storm, END Of TEH W0RLDZoRZ!" and national stuff is saying "yeah, there's a cold front, you'll get a bit of freezing rain".

Iggy's supposed to be flying in from Honolulu Saturday. He'll be coming through Houston... Luckily his uncle lives there, so he'll have a place to stay if OKC's airport is shut down.

That's what everyone up this way is acting like too . . . it was perfectly fine on the way to work this morning, but that could change I guess.
I heard on the way in that it's supposedly going to be freezing rain, but with no ice accumulation.

I believe it was Mike Morgan, :rolleyes: that was saying 1-2 inches. Could you imagine 2 inches of ice? :mack: Granted OKC weather people hype the weather up to be the worst of the worst.
