100 year blizzard bearing down on Oklahoma

We ain't got no accent everyone else does.

Ha! I remember when @Dennis H stopped by on his drive back home from the 2019 Cruisn the Coast trip. After a few phone calls he got a certain impression of me. When he arrived he told me he thought I would be living out on an acreage in the country instead of in the OKC metro.

I think I got 2 inches of freezing sleet and snow today. The roads are very slick causing lots of accidents.

It ain't the snow that gets ya... its the ice!!

It's going to be snowing today until midnight. It's windy and causing lots of drifting. I've got a 2 ft drift in front of the garage door.

Snow mageden is over, we got around 7 inches

 

[themechanic]

Same here. 2-3 foot drifts. Broke records for having 3" the past 2 days set back in 1913. February is normally one of the driest months in Oklahoma. We needed the precipitation.

Hell that' barely enough snow to cover the ground. How do you get 2-3 foot drifts out of that?

North wind blowing 20-30 mph powdery snow. Weatherman said some places got 14 foot drifts.

 

[Roger63]

I have a drift in front of my shop door that's 4 ft tall.

Are you missing any calves?

Are you missing any calves?

Nope the only beef I have is in the freezer.

I'll be glad when this couple of weeks of winter are over. 60s on the way!!

In Pa, that's just a heavy frost.



Glad everyone pulled through, although it was a squeaker.
Now it's french toast time!

We got rain, warm temps, wind and melting of the 4-5 inches of snow we had with some flooding, then a brief time of freezing rain. Now everything is iced over and the skies are breaking up temps dropping..

Parents live east of Tulsa - have approximately 6" on the ground and drifts of almost 2ft on the north side of the house also. Single digit temps tonite...

That's what cracks me up about living down here. We used to live in NW Iowa and 7 inches up there was a warm up.
