Not much going on here, just got 1 more day off after being off since Tuesday the 31st..... Can't wait to work my first day this year.....


Keane, I see your selling the 97, good luck with that. I'm looking into letting my 99Z34 go soon also. It has some needs that I plan on getting fixed by spring or sooner? Maybe......

Good morning all!

Cold morning for most!
Coldest it has been/going to be in 20 years!


current watches and warnings!



That snow in front of this cold front did start to kick off! From Oklahoma into Canada!

Some forecasts are saying up to 2" per hour will happen!



The SPC mesoscale discussion issued for central to eastern MO, for heavy snow and 1"-2" per hour snowfall rates into early afternoon, including St Louis area by daybreak.

Heavy snow band will then pivot northeastward toward the southern Great Lakes Region through the day, So michiganers/Canadians, This isn't the heavy stuff yet falling, that's to come Later today

Mornin' folks!

I like this map...



If it is correct, all the harsh weather should stop right at the border! Its looking like its going to be a rather gray day in Canada, but I'll take it over the freezing and snow that is south of the border!

Good morning guys. Cool graphics Devin.

Snow has started falling here within the last couple hours. Areas to the North of here in the M-59/I-69 corridor where it has been snowing overnight have already reported accumulations up to 5.5" as of 8 AM EST.

National Weather Service predictions show anywhere from 7-14" of snow in the area highlighted below through 1 AM EST Monday morning. Snow becomes heavy this afternoon into evening; predictions show an 80-100% chance of achieving a 1"/hr snowfall rate and, likewise, a 10-45% chance of achieving a 2"/hr rate of snowfall. Additional light accumulation of <1" is expected through the day Monday.
