12/2/13 MONDAY DENSE FOG ADVISORY UNTIL 10 AM THIS MORNING. Sunny today with highs in around 60. Southwest winds 5-10 mph. Monday nights low in the upper 30s with South winds 5-10 mph. My new little slogan: DONT PANIC, JUST PREPARE should be heeded for this week. The cold front will work through the area late Tuesday bringing very cold temps to the area. Several disturbances will move through late Wednesday into Thursday bringing snow to our area and freezing rain and a winter mix to our south. This said, any lines on a weather map are relative; meaning that those lines will fluctuate as the week wears on as this storm system moves through. Snowfall, freezing rain, and sleet amounts cant really be determined other than there may be a significant amount of icing in southern Oklahoma. I am pasting the new SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT FROM THE NWS HERE: .A WINTER STORM IS EXPECTED TO AFFECT OKLAHOMA AND ADJACENT PARTS OF NORTH TEXAS THURSDAY AND FRIDAY... A COLD AIR MASS WILL ARRIVE TO NORTHWEST OKLAHOMA TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND BRING COLDER AIR ACROSS ALL OF OKLAHOMA EARLY WEDNESDAY. MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES 22 TO 32 DEGREES ARE EXPECTED THURSDAY UNTIL SATURDAY. MINIMUM TEMPERATURES 8 TO 22 DEPRESS ARE EXPECTED DURING THIS PERIOD. WIND CHILL VALUES 0 TO 10 AT NIGHT AND 10 TO 20 IN THE DAYTIME ARE EXPECTED. SEVERAL PERIODS OF PRECIPITATION ARE EXPECTED TO START EARLY THURSDAY AND CONTINUE UNTIL FRIDAY AFTERNOON. THIS INCLUDES SNOW IN NORTHERN OKLAHOMA. CENTRAL OKLAHOMA CAN EXPECT FREEZING RAIN, THEN SLEET AND SNOW. SOUTHERN OKLAHOMA AND ADJACENT PARTS OF TEXAS CAN EXPECTED MOSTLY FREEZING RAIN AND SLEET. SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA WILL LIKELY HAVE SIGNIFICANT ICE ACCUMULATION. AT PRESENT ICE AND SLEET AMOUNTS OUTSIDE OF SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA DO NOT APPEAR VERY HEAVY. BECAUSE OF THE INTERVAL UNTIL THE BEGINNING OF PRECIPITATION...THERE IS NO ESTIMATE OF EXPECTED SNOWFALL AMOUNTS ACROSS NORTHERN OKLAHOMA. UPDATES TO THIS INFORMATION WILL CONTINUE SEVERAL TIMES DAILY. Have a great day!!
