I was just reading the mid Atlantic forum, and many school districts are closing early tomorrow in anticipation of the severe storms.

I just finished reading it, and it's an excellent write up. One thing, though, is that the biggest threat seems (per his post anyway) is south of the M-D Line. If I'm deciphering it right, things might not be as bad up this way as previously thought?

Wow... I did make a couple posts on Facebook for friends and family. First one was the graphical maps of the threats as depicted this morning. The second one quoted you anonymously (but indicating a friend's thoughts) a so as not to plagiarize, but to convey the potential severity of the event. Hopefully it's not as bad as what's possible. My caveat...whenever I post about storms (severe, snow, ice, etc) I usually end up jinxing it and eating crow.

When a Texas native, who is used to severe events, is deeply concerned about the set-up and potential for this one, it really makes me take notice.

No don't be. Its ok, I'm just frustrated. If we weren't so locked in since Thanksgiving I wouldn't be so upset. It's just been so relentless, both our cold and their heat. I guess it didn't help that the two winters I spent out there with my mom were cool and somewhat wet. Both before and after my arrival and departure, the winters were warm and dry. Gives merit to when I say that wherever I am, there too, shall the cold be.

Actually, this wasn't good to bring to my attention. It made me look at the forecast for Sun City, and the highs for late next week will be around 105 degrees. It set my anger and depression into overdrive, and if my stubborn wife would have been willing to give it a chance out there, I wouldn't be here suffering this misery.

So does CTP. My forecast says snowfall accumulation of less than one inch, which to me says that they think up to an inch could be possible.

Unbelievable. And here we (I anyway) freeze. I really hate that we've been "locked in" to this pattern all winter.

Yikes...

Well, it should make for an interesting video day if I encounter the storms in my travels. The only thing is having a brand new car with only 1,000 miles on the ticker. I'd be bummed bad if it got any hail damage.

Gotta wonder if that enhanced area gets expanded north and east as we get closer to the event. Many times it does.

Oh please no... No more salty roads.

Hey, I was just in Etown a couple hours ago. We drop/hook dirty for sanitized tankers at Quala on Industrial Rd.

Had a bit of sleet mixing in, but it's now stopped, even though radar is still pretty robust over the local area.

Storms really fell apart till they got here. My station reported only one nearby lightning strike.
