Blizzard Number ???

I don't even know what number this is, but it looks like we're in for another one. I'm trying to copy and paste the weather outlook but it's not working. Here's the text of it.....
A Clipper low pressure system brought us a quick hit of snow across Siouxland this morning. More snow is in the forecast this afternoon adding another inch or more to totals by this evening. What is of more concern is the windy conditions that will develop later this morning and this afternoon. Winds will gust to as much as 50 mph causing blowing and drifting of snow in some parts. Near whiteout conditions are expected this afternoon in the open country.
Temperatures also plummet with evening thermometer readings in the teens. Wind chill values are expected to drop to minus 20 to minus 30 by tonight. We'll hardly warm tomorrow as afternoon temperatures hover in the lower teens but luckily the wind will not be an issue.
More snow enters the forecast by Tuesday night as yet another Clipper system affects the area. The arctic invasion begins today and with a more serious shot coming by mid-week. There is good news however in the extended forecast with temperatures moderating big time by the end of the weekend.

Megan-We're coming to see you! Enough of this weather for a couple days:) Call or email me, better yet your uncle.

The kids are out playing now during the calm before the storm. I scooped as much snow as I can and waiting for DH to bring the tractor over. I'm SO glad i'm not working in the city anymore and have to contend with roads.

We're OK

If anyone has tuned in to national news lead stories today are of the tornado's, and flooding, hitting IA. The big tornado that hit the boy scout camp was about 1 hr south of us. We had some very interesting weather right here but thanks to TV we knew the nearest tornado, about 10 miles west of us, was not going to hit us!
Don't forget about the give away!! I've had a couple people email me, but go ahead and leave a comment! Don't forget to list your own blog if you have one!
Thanks!

Wild Weather

If you read this today, pray for us in the Midwest. It's not looking good for weather. We are in a high risk of sever weather including tornado's. We don't see this high risk that often. I think last week the weatherman said the last time it was like this was 3 years ago! Here we are a week later!
I have packed some personal treasures (jewelry, pictures) and then some clothes (diapers, wipes) and now I'm getting ready to get some blankets to put in the basement. I will go get our cave ready. That will be under the stairs in the new part of the basement. DH thinks that will be the safest.
I was supposed to take BFF-S out for her b-day tonight for a massage, but they are thinking late afternoon early evening for the biggest threat of tornado's.
Here's the radar where we live:

On a fun note, got my newer van last night! 2005 Honda Odyssey! Will get pictures when the weather allows. Right now it, and the other van, are parked safely in the garage!

Keep an eye on the weather for me and if you want a text message to know if we're OK, email me!
