[CALV-ARES] Pre-Alert: Winter Weather Sunday night into Monday

[Jim Tetlow]

Thank you sir, gathering the different conditions we had last Tuesdays event in Calvert that I witnessed; we should keep an eye on this! It may not seem bad at your location but going up (or down) the road a few miles conditions may change quickly. Be sure to keep extra overclothes in your vehicles for trips that usually are within an hour, that weather delays could turn it into many hours of standing traffic. Also take a bottle of water with you or something you can hydrate yourself, if you find you are stuck somewhere.
Those of you not traveling, keep your phones and tablets charged, so you can play games when not on the radio! (Angry Birds have evolved, and can help you pass some time, when stuck in traffic, or at home!) HaHa!
Be safe!

If you've been watching the weather forecasts for the next few days you might have noticed the two bad words that should never be seen together:  FREEZING and RAIN.  While it looks like it will be a mostly rain event, the NWS is still calling for at least the possibility of freezing rain coming down on Sunday night into Monday morning.
