Double Shot...
I had to post twice this morning due to some "cool" facts, I will blame it and all typing errors on the double shot of espresso!
• We've now had at least an inch of snow on the ground in Lincoln for 75 days, the second-longest duration, topped only by 92 days in 1975.
• Our half-inch of snow on Friday gave us a season total of 39.3 inches of snow. That puts us in 16th place among Lincoln's snowiest winters.
• We haven't seen 50 degrees since Dec. 1; we've seen 40 on four days since Dec. 1.... See More
Enough already?
It gets worse.
There's a winter storm watch for Sunday morning through Monday morning.
The National Weather Service says a winter storm system is expected to develop over the southern Rockies on Saturday and move onto the Plains Saturday night.
Forecasters say most places in the storm watch area, including all of Southeast Nebraska, are expected to receive between 3 and 5 inches of new snow, but the potential exists for more than 6 inches in some locations.
The combination of snow and gusty north to northwest winds could cause travel problems.
Much of the rest of the state also could get 3 to 5 inches of snow.
Friday's storm brought the most snow to far southeast and west-central Nebraska. The weather service said several areas in Keith, Garden and Lincoln counties reported receiving 5 inches or more, with an unofficial total of 6.5 inches near the Sutherland Reservoir west of North Platte.
In Southeast Nebraska, Nebraska City reported 4 inches, Auburn 3.4, Tecumseh 3, and Crete 1.7.
