After three days of updating my blog from the confines of my living room and not doing much sliding around, save that spent playing in the yard with the kids and shoveling my driveway, deicing my car and making one trip to my favorite buffet in Moore, I’ve made the trip back to the offices [...]
Read Full Post | Make a Comment ( None so far )The weather updates seem to be a broken record today. Snow, snow, more snow, now the system has slowed down a little and it’s going to snow longer than it was looking a few hours ago.
So it’s a good time for some snow ice cream. In my house that means ice cream, creamer, a little [...]
Snow continues to fall and pile up around the county, as the number of power outages locally climbs.
About 1,000 outages in Norman and another 61 in Moore were being reported as of 1 p.m. by OG&E, and about 2,800 Oklahoma Electric Cooperative customers in Norman and Noble also were without power.
And while the snow has [...]
Light snow is falling and is expected to for several hours. The bigger issue this morning is what that snow, combined with the sleet from yesterday afternoon, will do to the roads.
At best, it will be a slow go, but you are better off just staying home if possible. The precipitation should clear off by [...]
Looks like the worst of this thing is past, and the new forecast is that tomorrow’s snow totals may not be very high.
Our area has ducked the worst of this, but not far south and west there are still big power problems, especially down through Purcell and Pauls Valley and then southwest through Chickasha, Cement, [...]
I just took a stroll around outside. The sleet is piling up, perhaps an inch or snow, and the ice accumulations on the branches are a quarter-inch, maybe slightly more.

For those who are it may only be a matter of time, although precipitation seems to have predominantly changed over to sleet for the time being. Also, a heavier patch has just moved through, according to the National Weather [...]
From our news partners up the road at KOCO Channel 5 at about 3:20 p.m.: It now appears for at least the next few hours the precipitation in the Norman and Moore areas may change over to being predominantly sleet instead of freezing rain.
The good news is that gives the trees and power lines a [...]
More than 1,000 outages are being reported as of 2:33 p.m. in the Pauls Valley and Maysville areas, where more freezing rain has fallen than in the Oklahoma City metro area.
In the Cotton Electric Co-Op region around Lawton, more than 6,000 customers, or nearly 30 percent of the company’s customers, were without power at 2:35, [...]
The forecasted power outages for the area are not here yet, but it seems only a matter of time.
