[OKDXA] Impending Ice Storm

[Kim Elmore]

Looks like the corridor along I-44, from Wichita Fall though Tulsa 
will bear the brunt of the approaching storm, and it looks like it 
will almost all be ice. Dang!  And I just got all my antennas up and 
working just like I wanted. Hopefully, my ARRL Insurance will be in 
effect by the time anything bad happens (I faxed the application and 
payment yesterday). I've had my KLM KT-34A and Cushcraft 40CD2 for a 
long time -- I'll miss sure them if they come down.

As a non-DX related aside, I'm heading a project that examines 
dual-polarization radar data and compares what that radar sees with 
precipitation type. There's a web page for the project 
(http://www.nssl.noaa.gov/projects/winter06/) linked off of the 
National Severe Storms Laboratory home page. My project maintains an 
on-line form on which the public can enter their observations of 
precipitation type. Between snagging new ones, I'd appreciate some 
observations of precipitation type from your QTH if your within 
90-100 mi of Norman.

Stay warm!
