having a thunderstorm in January makes it feel like a totally different season. never mind tomorrow's high of 68!

I love the simplicity (and effectiveness) of the Key Messages of this morning's LSXAFD. I don't know if BSH haunts Mastodon, but if they do, they deserve the hat tip.

Cannot stress enough—today's #stlwx concerns are, in order of severity:
1) Temps
2) Winds
3) Snow
The most svr travel conditions emerge when all three are at their peak hazard, creating blizzard-like conditions on icy roads.
I've seen more than one comment not taking it seriously because they have low confidence in the precip fcst or don't think the fcst acc totals are sig enough.
Blowing snow will affect visibility just as much as falling snow.
Keep safe! Stay warm!

I'm driving Partner crazy with preparedness plans for tomorrow, and finally I hit my breaking point: "Yeah?! Well if you think this is bad…YOU SHOULD'VE SEEN MY DAD DURING Y2K!!!"
Stay safe! Stay warm!

As far as my #stlwx concerns with this system, here in South City we've not had the best luck with water pressure and water mains lately. Should a boil order be issued *and* we see a power outage of any significant duration, potable water would be the primary issue. I'm not trying to create a run on bottled water, but it's probably not a bad idea to pick up a couple cases as a precaution.

@EnthusiasticTechie Snow blowers are nice!
The amount forecasted has dropped to *only* a total of 12 inches as of this morning. I get my forecasts for my weather station website https://OakvilleWX.com from Aeris whose long-range forecasts are often unreliable.
The amount really won't be clear for several more days. #stlwx
