December 11, 2007: Winter finally arriving? Grades today…

  I get my grades today.  YAY 🙂  ALL FINISHED!  Well, finished until next semester!

It appears that winter is finally arriving.  The NWS and local forecasters have finally changed their tune about the coming weekend.  Snow is likely across the region on Friday and Saturday.  Additional storms appear possible between now and Christmas.  Several of them may produce snow as well.  As always, in this region, one shouldn’t become too excited this far out.  It seems like the last few years have brought more disappointments than anything else.  We will see how the weekend system turns out.  RIGHT NOW it looks like 1-3" of snow across the region.  Let’s hope this doesn’t end up as rain.

  Meanwhile, Oklahoma is a disaster zone.  State of emergency has been declared.  The photo below was taken from a news reporter in Tulsa, Oklahoma.  Incredible images.
