We should all be sympathizing with the folks in Oklahoma, who are about to endure a vicious ice storm.
Here is a link to some of the warnings up for the Oklahoma City area.
Please take note of this excerpt:
ICE ACCUMULATIONS OF ONE HALF INCH TO ONE AND A HALF INCHES ARE
EXPECTED WITH THE MOST SIGNIFICANT ACCUMULATIONS EXPECTED TO
EXTEND ALONG THE INTERSTATE 44 CORRIDOR. ICE ACCUMULATIONS AND
WINDS WILL LIKELY LEAD TO SNAPPED POWER LINES AND FALLING TREE
BRANCHES. THIS MAY RESULT IN EXTENDED POWER OUTAGES IN SOME AREAS.
Remember, our bad ice storms of the past few years were caused by about 1/2 inch of ice -- can you imagine three times that amount?!?!?
Not good.

Hey thanks Skip! I live in Oklahoma and I've lived many places. I'd rather be in any other state for an ice storm as here. It's total madness already! I posted on my blog about my venture to Wal-Mart this afternoon.
Congrats on the promotion, but don't give up your weather obsession. We still need you. By the way, I'm available any time in April for the 'executive assistant' position for your trip to Paris!
