i'm not very happy about them doing that!!!!

So, frozen precipitation is imminent?

this is better than upgrading to a winter storm warning, like last week

I think we miss it this time.
I am not feeling near as much pressure in my head and that usually means not much moisture coming.
No kidding, my sinus's are really quite good at predicting the weather.
Then again, don't have to be too good to beat Dave Brown! lol
Sorry Dave.
Go Tigers!

Latest update. Last I saw there was a 100% chance of frozen precip tomorrow/Thursday. We'll see.

I doubt it will be cold enough in Memphis and Shelby County for there to be any frozen stuff. It could be very interesting for counties north of here though.

Thanks MMike.

Swell. I am headed to Minneapolis. Nothing like bad roads to make my day, lol.

Be careful, Strat.

It sleeted in bartlett for about 10 minutes earlier lol.

Just wanted to make sure everybody got the message.
