Good morning, Sir! I think you may be posting on the wrong thread.

That wind storm sounds ominous. What are your temperatures? Any chance of snow out of it? It sounds to me similar to a blizzard, just not as cold. What think you?

Oh ya, it’s pretty bad out there now, and it’s supposed to get worse. Winds might get to 90 mph!
I hope Geee wasn’t scheduled to fly home today, cause that won’t work.

You're right...

Good Morning!

Here it is again:

.AN INTENSE STORM SYSTEM IS FORECAST TO DEVELOP OVER THE MIDWEST TONIGHT AND TRACK NORTHWARD TO NORTHERN SECTIONS OF MINNESOTA ON TUESDAY. THE STORM IS EXPECTED TO SLOW AND MOVE INTO SOUTHERN ONTARIO ON WEDNESDAY. SUSTAINED WINDS OF 20 TO 35 MPH WITH GUSTS TO 45 MPH ARE EXPECTED ACROSS NORTHERN WISCONSIN...WITH SUSTAINED WINDS OF 25 TO 40 MPH WITH GUSTS TO 60 MPH FORECAST FOR CENTRAL AND EASTERN WISCONSIN. THE STRONGEST WINDS WILL OCCUR DURING THE DAY TUESDAY AND AGAIN WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. WIND SPEEDS ARE EXPECTED TO BRIEFLY DECREASE TUESDAY NIGHT...BUT STILL REMAIN QUITE STRONG.

Right now the temps are very mild. Some parts could receive up to an inch of rain, but then the winds will turn around and come out of the north tomorrow, bring perhaps an inch of snow. Yikes!!!

I actually heard the weather forecaster refer to the storm comparable to a tropical storm. I am sure Carolyn would be amused by that.

She's doing much better. Thank the Lord!

Temps are actually quite warm; 63 at the moment; will plunge to the 40's later. Still too warm for snow.

The wind is the concern.
