The GFS keeps hinting that the ice storm could be as far south as my area, in SE Louisiana.

Stay safe all.

Hunt County Texas here. We are getting freezing rain the next few days and highs in the low 30's. By Monday our low will be about 5 and expecting up to half a foot of snow.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76578598


Brazos County. Temps down to 15 on Monday, and a total accumulation of 6 inches - I would imagine it will be the wet, slushy version of snow.

We usually only get a couple light frosts in the winter.

Who out there in glp land is getting hammered by this lastest winter storm doom?

I'm in KY, right on the impact zone of what the forecasters and media are calling an emergency situation. We are expected up to 1" of ice thru tomorrow afternoon.
Ppl around here have been in a state of near panic for the last 2 days in preparation for this "event" that was scheduled to kick in significantly last night. Well.....this morning we have nothing outside but a bit of sprinkles thru the early morning hours with temps above freezing (so far). The radar is showing a clearing but yet travel restrictions are planned for this afternoon and the alerts are still going out. We have been told that power outage are expected, and will last for several days. On top of that, the temps are supposed to drop down to near 0 by Sunday. It's scaring the old people and causing panic buying everywhere!

So, my question is....
Who is getting hit by this "monster" winter storm because it's not us (so far)?
 Quoting: Roadkill Bill


Idaho...got 6 inches yesterday, got warning for 1-2 ft or more over the next 3 days with ice at night. Power company already sent out warnings for outages.

I'd boohoo for you but we've been sitting on ice for a couple of days and it's sleeting again this morning.

Idaho here...9 degrees snow on the ground...cold and more snow coming
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79784143


I'm in the far northern county of Idaho, right up next to the Canada border. The temperature now is up to 10°F at 8:48am, but we have no snow on the ground. Supposed to get down to -12° on Thursday night.

The past few weeks it's been in the high 30's, and even rained several times in January and the first week of February.

This is the first really cold weather we've had all winter, and March is right around the corner so winter is almost over. I love the spring up here, it feels like a gift.

I lived in SE Iowa for fifteen years. It's a very hard place to live. I can't imagine anyone choosing to go there. Brutal cold and wind in the winter, humid and non-stop bugs in the summer, and the worst ragweed in the entire world all fall. The springtime is beautiful but only lasts for three days.

Weather map says there will be snow from Richmond north to Cincinnati starting tomorrow morning. There is already snow on the ground. It's only about an inch but temperatures are hovering around 28 to 32 which can turn icy in a hurry. The precipitation travels south through the day as temperatures lower, so make sure you have survival gear in your car and keep cell phones charged. You can sign up for AAA today and it gets activated immediately, they give you an account number which you tell to the tow truck guy.

You can check out the weather yourself on [link to www.ventusky.com (secure)] There is a calendar at the bottom left to change the dates, and hourly buttons along the bottom of the screen. Menu on the left allows selection of things like temperature, precipitation, wind speed, snow cover, etc.

I just moved way up north east and have been told by everyone that this is a mild winter. Typically it's below 0 regularly this time of year with several feet of snow and while we do have a good bit of snow, it's not nearly so cold. Luckily since winters are always rough here there doesn't seem to be much panic when storms are coming. I went grocery shopping Sunday morning before a storm was coming through and everything was as normal as ever.
