This is the weather watch for my area. And we're supposed to go to my brothers later tomorrow afternoon?

A Winter Storm Warning Remains In Effect From 6 PM This Evening To 6 PM CST Sunday.

Areas Of Drizzle And Very Light Rain Will Change To Snow Later This Afternoon Into The Evening. Snow Will Become Heavy Overnight... As Winds Increase From The Northwest. Snowfall Amounts From 1 To 2 Inches Per Hour Will Be Possible At Times. The Snow Will Continue Into Sunday Before Tapering Off From Southwest To Northeast Across The Area. A Few Locations In The I-94 Corridor Could See A Foot Of New Snow. Northwest Winds From 20 To 35 Mph... Mainly Later Tonight And Much Of Sunday... Will Lead To Near Whiteout Conditions At Times... And Significant Blowing And Drifting Which May Make Travel Impossible.

Time to get those flannel jammies all ready so you can stay home where it's warm and safe. Tink..IF you go, you be careful!!

We're in bad weather today too. Blowing snow and slick roads. I ran to town about the time that it started to get my groceries for Christmas and the weather had gotten worse by the time I came home. I have 4-wheel drive so I wasn't too worried about the roads but I started to slow down before I came to a stop sign and when I pushed on the brakes I started fishtailing!!! I went right through the stop sign but there's not much traffic on the road so it wasn't something to be REAL concerned about. Then we cross a low water bridge to get to and from town and today it has a little bit of water going across it and I slid down the road and into the water but I didn't have any trouble going up the other side. It's VERY slick so I think that I'm staying home!!!!

Tink · 12-22-2007, 01:32 PM

Diana, I'm so glad you made it home safely.
Janet, it seems to be headed your way next, so get ready hon. LOL

If it's at all bad we'll just stay home.
No way I'm risking my life just to open gifts on a certain day. We can reschedule and all stay safe.

We, like Diana, went to town to stock up and will sit it out if it's anything like forecast.

Tink! Diana ! Stay safe and warm....I hope it will be alright for you to travel on Christmas Tink...

I hate to brag but its 49 degrees today, tomorrow it is going to rain, they say Christmas should stay in 40's. This weather is crazy but I am loving it..

Please stay indoors safe and snuggly ...

Guess I'm going to have to check the weather. I haven't had the TV on so I don't know what it is suppose to do here. I really had no idea Kansas had so much winter weather. I thought it was warmer for some reason...duh!! You be careful Diana and you too Tink. Now I'm off to check the weather for my area.

Janet · 12-22-2007, 05:29 PM

Doesn't look like we're going to get any bad weather as far as precipitation. Yay!!!
