Incoming Wintry Precipitation On The Menu For North Texas Next Week

I found that which you see here, via Miss Chris, this morning on Facebook. The photo appears to be an extremely over saturated view of some location on Puget Sound in my old home zone of the state of Washington. Padilla Bay, maybe.

This type exaggerated photography is known in the Fort Worth zone as the Luenser Style of Photography.

Changing the subject from photo propaganda to my favorite subject, the weather.

The morning my computer based weather monitoring device was flashing red. When I clicked on that which was flashing red I was advised to read a "Special Weather Statement".

Being advised to read a Special Weather Statement always seems worrisome to me. I'll copy the Special Weather Statement so you can see for yourself that this one is not too worrisome...
