First Winter Effects Very cold, icing Goodland KS 10-13-2018 Next 4 days

Last season, western Kansas [generally speaking] did not get any significant winter weather events like they normally do. They were very fortunate last year (unless you're a Kansas farmer] So, they're due to get back into their normal or bad winter weather reality.

 

Lived in the north all my life and we haven't had any cold weather yet ...2 weeks ago we were still dealing with severe thunderstorms and temps in the 90s ....this ain't the weather channel lol

 

Also when I worked for the Nebraska dept of roads we had sensors on our trucks that would tell us the pavement temperature .

 

No biggie heavy and still love ya !
It would have to snow a ton in low elevations to be much of a game changer .
In 1996 we got a foot of snow in Omaha a week before Halloween and raised he'll with the trees and power but the next morning the roads were just wet .
There's a mile rise between Omaha and Denver so the story between Omaha and North Platte can be much different.

 

Lmao yeah I won't tell the wife ....my ex father in law was the truck engine manager for caterpillar in Omaha and pointed that out to me after his customers wanted to know why they're fleets got less fuel mileage going west to Denver and better coming back ....its so gradual.

 

East Texas is having massive thunderstorms and tornado drama tonight. More of the same thing tomorrow. I feel for y'all with ice and snow...
