The White-Hot Glare Report

My mom is going off to some dance thing, so she asked me to give you The White-Hot Glare of Righteousness Report.
She didn't want snow on top of the ice. She was planning on scaring the next bad weather away.
Yesterday evening, the weather guys on television said we had a 100 percent chance of measurable accumulations of snow overnight, anywhere from 2 to 8 inches. When we woke up this morning, we discovered that most of the storm had edged north. There was no snow visible on the ground or on the broken branches already on the ground.
At 9 a.m., Lizbit noticed that snowflakes were coming down. She liked it. My mom stared hard out the window. The snowflakes stopped at 9:07.
Lizbit is mad, but my mom is really good sometimes at what she does.

Plains Gets Break From Snowstorm Threat
Saturday, December 15, 2007
By ROCHELLE HINES, Associated Press Writer
OKLAHOMA CITY —
Oklahoma residents were mostly spared a threatened second wintry blast on Saturday, as crews were still working to restore power to homes and businesses blacked out by last weekend's storm.
However, the latest storm's northward shift as it moved east meant the brunt of the bad weather was passing through Kansas and Missouri where, along with Oklahoma, hundreds of thousands of people were still in the dark.
After unconfirmed reports of a "white hot glare of righteousness" near Oklahoma City, the National Weather Service canceled heavy snow warnings for Oklahoma early Saturday. In the central part of the state, the system brought only cold, light rain during the night, turning to snow during the morning. One to 3 inches of snow was forecast.
Kansas had up to a foot of snow Saturday morning. The Highway Patrol reported Interstate 70 in central Kansas was snowpacked but there were reports of major accidents.

I hope that the "white hot glare of righteousness" doesn't move the storm too far North. The transmission of my car is a victim of the ice storm. It's supposed to be somewhere around Chicago right now, but keeps getting stalled by the weather.

I am sorry that the residents of Kansas and Missouri got the snow instead of us. This white hot superpower I'm developing is new, and I don't yet have complete control of it.
I am going to print out the tmitsss version of the AP story, though, because that made me very cheerful. (I also know Rochelle Hines, back from when she was a student. I'm pleased to learn she's still working for AP. It's a little bitty world.)

Too funny.

Remember, SC, with great power comes great responsibility.

We're having the drought of the century here. Of course, on the day I have the most Christmas shopping to do, it has rained buckets! I just waded through 3 inches of water to get to my car. That was a lot of fun.
We sure need the rain so I shouldn't complain. But it would have been nice to have borrowed SC's "white hot glare of righteousness" just for a
little bit.

We have something new here today.
I think it's called sunshine. It's still too cold, but the bright stuff in the sky is very welcome -- even if that means I'll have to put in some heavy-duty yard work today.
