GIVE ME A LITTLE BIT OF HOPE. SEROTONIN. SEE THE SUN? YEAH. IT IS GLOOMY ON THE GROUND. I’VE BEEN ENCOURAGED BY THE FACT THAT TEMPERATURES HAVE WARMED. OKAY. HAVEN’T SEEN ANY FROST HERE ON THE NORTH SIDE OF OKC. HAVEN’T SEEN ANY TROUBLE ON THE ROADWAYS, WHICH IS GOOD. IN FACT, GUYS, IF THERE’S GOING TO BE ANY SLICK SPOTS, I’VE ACTUALLY MOVED THIS FORECAST FOOTPRINT FOR SLICKNESS WEST OF OKC. I’M LOOKING LIKE IN THE CADDO COUNTY, GRADY COUNTY, WEST OKC, CANADIAN KINGFISHER UP TO ENID LIKE THESE AREAS WEST. NOW, WHY DID I MOVE THIS A LITTLE BIT FURTHER WEST OF OKC FOR POSSIBLE BLACK ICE? WELL, TEMPERATURES OUT THIS WAY HAVE JUST BEEN A WHOLE LOT COLDER. AND THE FOG IS ACTUALLY MOVING ITSELF WEST. SO THERE COULD BE AN INTERSECT OF SOME OF THE COLDER AIR AND THE FOG THAT IS KIND OF MARCHING WEST. THAT’S WHERE MAYBE WE COULD RUN INTO SOME PROBLEMS. IT STILL IS REALLY FOGGY HERE IN OKC. IT’S LESS THAN AN EIGHTH OF A MILE NOW. IT’S REALLY, REALLY BAD ALONG I-44. AND THAT FOG IS GETTING FURTHER TO THE WEST, LIKE HOBART DOWN TO A QUARTER MILE VISIBILITY. THAT’S NOT GOOD. I DON’T WANT TO SEE THESE SPOTS HERE WITH MY HAND. SEE A DROP IN VISIBILITY. AND THAT’S WHY THE WEATHER SERVICE ADDED THESE COUNTIES TO A FREEZING FOG ADVISORY. YOU KNOW, HERE IN OKLAHOMA COUNTY, THE METRO WOULDN’T SURPRISE ME IF THEY LET THIS CANCEL. AND THEY JUST PUT US UNDER A REGULAR OLD DENSE FOG ADVISORY BECAUSE WE JUST HAVEN’T SEEN ANY ISSUES. THERE PROBABLY ARE A FEW SPOTS IN THE METRO THAT HAVE SEEN SOME HEAVY FROST, AND WE MAY HAVE SOME FROST OUT THERE ON THE LAWN HERE. AS WE LOOK DOWN BELOW. FAMILY LEISURE CAMERAS 1000FT UP. WE’RE NOW ON THE GROUND. WOW. REALLY GLOOMY, HIGH HUMIDITY, TEMPERATURES JUST ABOVE FREEZING. LIGHT WIND THOUGH AS WE WORK THROUGH THE MORNING, WE’LL JUMP OUT OF THE FREEZING MARK. 29 WE WERE 29 WHEN I GOT INTO WORK TODAY. WE’RE NO LONGER AT 29. LET ME FIX THAT NEXT TIME YOU SEE ME.
