Winter has final arrived

Temperatures were warming up Thursday across the south, where freezing rain glazed roads with ice, but a sprawling winter storm remained in place across the upper Plains states.

The national weather services issued winter storm warnings and advisories for more than a dozen states. The brunt of the systems is poised to hit Kentucky, Virginia and West Virginia, but several inches of snow are forecast  for portions of Indiana, Ohio, Tennessee and North Carolina. As well as Minnesota and the Dakotas. Winter weather people stretched into Wisconsin and Minnesota.

Up to a quarter-inch of ice could accumulate on roadways, the weather service warned, in addition to previously fallen snow. There to six inches of snow were forecast for eastern Virginia.

The harsh weather stranded about 300 people in Canada Tuesday after what a local official called the most brutal storm to hit the Ontario region in more than two decades.

 

Winter is now HERE!! If you have not gotten you’re car ready for winter you better be getting that car into the shop and pit some now tires and get some new window wiper fluid. On the way home from the shop, stop by the Canadian tire and but some salt and some snow shovels. This winter I hear that is will be one of the worst winter we have had in 55 years. So don’t wait until its snows and you’re house to get some basic necessities for the winter
