THE TEMPERATURES ARE HOVERING NEAR FREEZING AND COULD WAVER ABOVE AND BELOW THE FREEZING MARK THROUGHOUT THE EVENT. THUS...SOME PORTIONS OF THE AREA...MAY SEE ONLY LIGHT ICING AT BEST...WHILE IN OTHER AREAS NEW ICE ACCUMULATIONS MAY APPROACH A QUARTER INCH TO ONE HALF INCH.

WHILE THE PRECIPITATION WILL HAVE ENDED BY MONDAY...GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS AT 15 TO 25 MPH WILL CAUSE ADDITIONAL DAMAGE TO ICE COVERED TREES AND POWER LINES. TEMPERATURES WILL FALL SLOWLY THROUGH THE DAY...AND WIND CHILL VALUES WILL TUMBLE BELOW ZERO BY MONDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. OVERNIGHT LOWS MONDAY NIGHT WILL FALL INTO SINGLE DIGITS.

STOCK UP ON EXTRA SUPPLIES INCLUDING FOOD...MEDICINE AND EXTRA HEATING FUEL...JUST IN CASE THE STORM MAKES TRAVEL IMPOSSIBLE. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION IF YOU HAVE LOST ELECTRICITY. MAKE PLANS NOW AS TO WHERE YOU WOULD GO SHOULD YOU LOSE POWER... PARTICULARLY IF YOUNG CHILDREN AND OLDER RESIDENTS ARE INVOLVED.

IF YOU LOSE POWER...DO NOT BRING A GENERATOR OR A CHARCOAL GRILL INDOORS AS THEY CAN PRODUCE DEADLY CARBON MONOXIDE GASES.

A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY IS ISSUED FOR A VARIETY OF WINTER WEATHER CONDITIONS...SUCH AS SNOW...BLOWING SNOW...SLEET...OR FREEZING DRIZZLE AND RAIN. IT ONLY TAKES A SMALL AMOUNT OF WINTRY PRECIPITATION TO MAKE ROADS... BRIDGES...SIDEWALKS...AND PARKING LOTS ICY AND DANGEROUS. IT IS OFTEN DIFFICULT TO TELL WHEN ICE BEGINS TO FORM...SO DO NOT BE CAUGHT OFF GUARD.

It wastes space on the forums. If it's cold, or if it's icy, I'm sure everyone who lives and breathes knows it. :roll:
