I just came in from checking on Buddy. I feel gritty. Dirt in my teeth, nose, and eyes!

There was a fire just to my north, it's out now. Firefighters still working hot spots! The wind is supposed to calm down some here in the next couple of hours!

High temp was 31 degs, snow and wind all day. Difficult time getting up the driveway. The ice is about 2 feet thick in this section.
BAD TORNADOES IN ARKANSAS AND ESPECIALLY MISSOURI! I KNOW @Morgan101 is fixing to get some BAD STORMS! Not sure exactly where @MoBookworm1957 is, but hopefully she checks in!!
At the moment snowing lightly. Melting in contacting the ground.
For once, or at least this time, Michigan is a safe place from server weather.
I'm sleeping with the hatch open under a comforter.

It's snowing. They're calling for over a foot of snow by Monday.
Devastating night! Daylight will show the horrific damage from the tornado outbreak!! 
The wind and dust have settled down. No tasting dirt when I went outside with Bear! 70° and better today! Everything is covered in thick dust!
Also hoping @Jen , @winds-of-change , and our other Oklahomaians check in, really bad fires across the state!!

Rained all night and now it is snowing. It's supposed to snow all day long.
Cloudy with Temps in the mid 60's. Seems pretty quiet after last night's storm of Biblical proportions. Still have to check outside to see if we had any hail damage
60*, windy, cloudy. High of 70*.
Was horribly hazy yesterday with particulate matter in the air.
Have dust on everything that was near our back door where we had the open screen on the door.

My weather radio started blaring about 2am... and kept it up til daylight. All I got was a shower of rain about 5am. But I got a heck of a lightening show! Finally got to sleep about 6am.
Round 2 starts this afternoon around 3pm. This is the main event!!! I'm sitting in the highest danger zone that can be issued by the weather service. Super cells and long track tornadoes probable... Long track means EF-3's, 4's, and 5's, the big boys!!!!
Might lose a roof or a few shingles with smaller tornadoes... The big ones suck pavement off roads and flatten everything, Fingers crossed!!!

Still snowing here. Supposed to snow non stop until after 1am tomorrow. Then snow almost every day until the end of the month. This is good, we need the moisture.
The party is about to start for me, couple more hours. I'm more worried about the storms at the bottom of this pic than the big ones near the top. Those smaller 'spotty' storms will produce super cells!

Right now there are 4 or 5 tornadoes on the ground in mississippi crossing into alabama. I lost power for about 5 min but it came back on. Gave me time to finish the dishes and toss a load of towels in the washer.
I have a gas stove so I'm having pan fried ribeye steak for dinner with or without power!
