KEEP WATCHING THE SITE FOR EVEN MORE CHANGES!

hey everyone I know its late almost my bed time but just wanted to remind
everyone to of course keep checking back with us as we hope you always do
for the weather of course but keep your eye on the site closely for even more
cool changes on the way and more in depth weather coverage right here on
toddrasmuson.com as far as tomorrow goes CHILLY, WINDY and a few
flakes here and there of snow but dont get to excited nothing to hardly even
cover the ground and if that happens it will be west of a gainesville to
mineral wells line... i dont expect hardly any snow in the metroplex proper
in fact if you noticed on my graphic for tomorrow''s forecast you folks east
of the metroplex like rockwall, waxahachie and up to the ne towards bonham
only have a 10-15% chance... 20% here in the metroplex proper (dallas,ftworth
and say denton) further west you go the chances increase around decatur to
weatherford... places west of mineral wells could possibly get up to 1/2 to
MAYBE 1" well iam off to bed as my wife would say its WAY past your
bed time so i better get in there but everyone make it a good valentine's day
and i feel for those delivery people out there tomorrow iam sure its
gonna be crazy i ordered a dozen rose's for my wife i believe it was over
a week ago and due to the rush they expected to be so crammed tomorrow
they were doing quite a few today so my wife got hers early, she was quite
surprised!

looks like a better weather pattern for central,southern
plains atleast for the next 7 days..

temps this week across ok and tx will be cooler then normal
but no precip in the forecast and thats for sure good news
for folks in eastern ok picking up from the major ice storm
over that way... next winter storm will arrive around or about
the 1st of next month with a slight chance of winter precip at
that time
