| #7 Upped the amount for our area, probably nothing here until 11 tonight but then big badda boom. Cattlemen bothered, farmers need the water however it comes in. I got my warm socks ready and coffee brewin' at a button push. |

| #5 Sunny and warm here in SWKS. Blizzard to hit tonigt about 1 am and continue throughout Friday. Expected snowfall is 6 - 16 inches along the OK. KS. border which is where I live. I don't know what others are doing, but we have gathered our cattle in anticipation of several days of tough weather. |

| #3 Wow - not so much the rescue, though that's wowie enough, but all the way from Traverse City. There are several other, or many CG stations between TVC and Fargo - I wonder how much GC resource has been shifted? Sounds like FEMA's on their toes on this one. |
