Hello, New Jersey here, we're hoping for a rain event come Saturday.

Otherwise, We might start seeing an increase of Suicide Attempts.

Let it snow on Christmas Eve, after that, Baaaah Humbug ! :nuts:
 
President Obama deploys FEMA to Oklahoma. The red state that doesn't want the federal government in anything. Except, of course, if it means other taxpayers money going to help Oklahoma.

..considering the article states `they' are doing this on their own accord, this is probably a typical `re-stating' in order to attack persons who would rather not be obliged to governmental heirochy and the subsequent government interpretation of what was really needed. It looks like a `HEY! Lookie here what we are doing for that RED Oklahoma!!!' campaign plug....

Sending people and supplies into the field in advance of a storm -- regardless of whether it's expected to make a severe impact -- is one of the major operational changes made by FEMA in the wake of its botched response to Hurricane Katrina. Such deployments are made without formal disaster requests by governors, but state officials must agree to allow federal personnel to join them at state emergency operation centers.

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano and FEMA Administrator Craig Fugate briefed President Obama by telephone about the federal government's coordination with local and state governments, the White House said.
Fugate, an avid social media user, regularly reminds Americans to use his agency's Twitter, Facebook and YouTube channels for tips and to stay tuned to local news outlets for storm updates.
Meanwhile, the government's main weather Web site appears to be suffering from an influx of traffic. Weather.gov, operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, has slowed, according to a spokesman. No further details were immediately available, but some users reported difficulty in calling up forecasts for certain cities.
.....with the NOAA problem probably caused by those cussed Okies and Arkies!!!:D
 
Round II is headed in this afternoon..

Clouds will thicken across Oklahoma and western North Texas as a strong winter storm progresses toward the region. A few flurries may be seen across northern and western parts of Oklahoma before noon...but no accumulations are expected until afternoon. A very strong cold front will also make southward progress over northern and western Oklahoma through afternoon...then make its way across central Oklahoma and western North Texas late this afternoon and this evening. The front is expected to move across south-central and southeast Oklahoma toward and after midnight. Temperatures will quickly fall into the single digits and teens...with wind chill values well below 0 degrees fahrenheit...once the front passes your location. Near and behind this front...widespread heavy snow is forecast to develop and progress over the region from west to east. The heaviest snow is expected to commence across northern and western parts of Oklahoma this afternoon...and move over the main body of Oklahoma and adjacent parts of northern Texas this evening and overnight. Widespread snowfall totals of 4 to 6 inches are expected...with as much as 8 to 10 inches across parts of central and north-central Oklahoma. Travel conditions are expected to deteriorate quickly after the heavy snow begins. Central and southwest portions of Oklahoma will likely see hazardous Road conditions from mid-evening through most of tomorrow. The heaviest snowfall over the region is forecast to occur between 9 PM this evening and 9 am tomorrow morning.
Winter Storm Warning in effect from 6 PM this evening to 6 PM CST Wednesday...

Buster, thats what we useta call a Blue Northern, pardner. :D

Gets mighty cold in a N. Tejas winter.
 
...virtually the same for NE OK and NW AR - , at least they are telling us no ice this time. I was shoveling up 1 inch thick slabs the other day - cleared the top layer of snow off the driveway, then used that WONDERful IceMelt stuff, got the ice off on day two. So I was ready for the snow that came Thursday. Just waiting now - my son-in-law took my snowshovel (not away from me, just to use on his own driveway;)) so I have my flat garden spade sitting here at the front door - At The Ready !!! I've lost count of the storms that have come through here; it's getting to where you can't tell the residue snow from the residue before it!
 
Tons of people at Walmart last night stocking up. The shelves were empty last week after the last snow storm.

I work at Tinker AFB just waiting for it to blow in. Looks like the golf channel and CNBC all day tomorrow. Gotta like it.... :)

Buster,

Mike is eating to many twinkies and not paying attention to the weather. He has gained some major weight as of late.
