Hello to all...
The National Weather Service has put us under a Winter Storm Watch
for tomorrows snow storm. Looks like we could get anywhere from 5-10inches
of snow. SKYWARN self activation is for 10inches of snow or greater, so its
falls just short of the activation. So please call in your amounts to the
NWS by the number on you SKYWARN card. Report every 2inches you get and then
the total amounts.
I will be keeping everyone updated on this situation....emails will be sent
out to keep everyone updated.
