Merry Christmas all!

As we start to get into the mode for some potential winter weather, I figured I'd come back out of the real world and make a post.

Looking at New Years Eve and Day for some winter weather in the state. Main impacts right now will be snow/sleet out west and rain central and east. Depending on the ability for the snow to change over quickly will have a huge impact, as always, on the snowfall potential to the west. Below's link to a Google map gives you an idea of where the currently thinking is.

Right now it does not appear to be a major impact for Central Oklahoma as we will stay a bit too warm early on. When temps do fall, it does appear we will be dry slotted very quickly and cut off any precip. However, this also tends to allow freezing drizzle to develop so we may have to watch out for that.

I was pretty generous with the snowfall coverage area in relation to the mixed precip area, but you can easily move that area further west for the 31st. NE Oklahoma may be able to change over to move winter precip, but the storm will be pulling away quickly to keep things under control there.

Will update as we get closer.

Upcoming Winter Weather Opportunities:
- January 7th (Northern OK)
- January 8th (Northern OK)
