More on the Curse Of du Toit™

the bastard.














Weather Synopsis...A strong winter storm will approach the region Friday, leading to widespread moderate to heavy snow over the weekend. Accumulating snows could begin as early as late Friday across western north Texas and southwest Oklahoma, then spread northeast. Portions of south-central and southeast Oklahoma, along with north Texas, will likely see a mixture of sleet and rain with the snow. Although the forecasted snow amounts will likely fluctuate as new date becomes available, we are fairly certain that this winter storm will have severe impacts on travel and commerce for portions of Oklahoma and western north Texas.

...WINTER STORM WATCH NOW IN EFFECT FROM FRIDAY EVENING THROUGH
SATURDAY AFTERNOON...

.A STRONG UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL MOVE FROM BAJA TO THE
CENTRAL PLAINS THROUGH THE WEEKEND. AT THE SURFACE...A COLD FRONT
WILL SLIDE ACROSS THE REGION LATE TODAY AND RESULT IN A REINFORCEMENT
OF COLD AIR. TEMPERATURES WILL INITIALLY REMAIN ABOVE FREEZING
BUT WILL BEGIN TO FALL TO FREEZING OR BELOW FRIDAY NIGHT. THE SUB-
FREEZING TEMPERATURES...COUPLED WITH MOISTURE AND ENERGY MOVING
ACROSS THE REGION...COULD RESULT IN MIXTURE OF FREEZING RAIN AND SLEET
FROM LATE FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY AFTERNOON. ICE
ACCUMULATIONS UP TO 1/4 OF AN INCH WILL BE POSSIBLE BEFORE THE
WINTER PRECIPITATION ENDS SATURDAY NIGHT.

A WINTER STORM WATCH MEANS THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT
SNOW...SLEET...OR ICE ACCUMULATIONS THAT MAY IMPACT TRAVEL.

I hope you're happy, Kim. And the rest of us have to suffer so you can have your fondly remembered 'Chicago weather'.
