...severe weather event expected christmas day over parts of the gulf states...
The North will get the snow (and much more on the way), and the South gets the supercells and tornadoes tomorrow. Anyone in the deep South, please stay tuned to the weather from Southern Texas all the way across Dixie, especially through LA/MS/AL. The NWS Storm Prediction Center in Norman OK is forecasting a severe weather outbreak tomorrow including the potential for large, damaging, long-track tornadoes.
Anyone who will be travelling across our southern U.S. states tomorrow please stay aware of the weather forecasts at all times...and of course I wish EVERYONE safe travels tomorrow as the Northern tier states are primed to get dumped on with lots more of the white stuff as a very potent low pressure system tracks from West to East.
Ed I'm glad you got the snow you wanted!
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!
Abe
