Speaking of numbers....would we really have much of a problem with ice ( if it comes...I live in Cullman Cty) with it as warm as it has been and will be tomorrow?? Just curious about how all that works with freezing rain...

Hey Anna I think we might see some ice but I think the most will be to our north. So around here looks like a cold rain a good weekend to stay in around a fireplace and a good book.

Yep...only cold rain for us. TWC and other local stations are only predicting a cold rain.

BTW...JB...you need to get to Lenox Square Mall and Phipps Plaza in Atlanta. It's a great shopping trip. Be sure to eat at Maggiano's if you like Italian. It's also in Buckhead a block or so from the malls.

HOw did you avoid Panama City with kids? Atlanta is ok, mostly been to Six Flags, whitwater once. Did a couple of ladies bible retreats at the dome but not much else siteseeing. Question..how did you come up with the numbers for how long you've been interested in weather?
For the naysayer..whoever he was a while back when I predicted ice storm for late Feb. early March.."brrrrrt" (visual..tongue out..bronx cheer I believe they call it!) I hit all the hurricane landing points on the bulls-eye as well!
