Just Catching Up

Are you staying busy? It seems like with the holiday next week, people are scrambling to prepare either a meal or to travel out of town. The month of November is slipping away from us and I'm having a hard time remembering that next week is Thanksgiving. If you are going to travel next week, be sure to call our travel hotline on Monday between 4 and 7 p.m. and we can get you a forecast for your destination. The number to call is 436-5627. We've been doing this for many years now and find it to be a big help for our viewers. Because the economy has fallen on hard times, we won't charge you anything to get the forecast (unless you have to call long distance, then there will be a few pennies involved)

You still have until Sunday to get your snowfall guesses posted. When will Wichita get its first one inch? The official measurement will be taken at Mid-Continent Airport. I don't have any big clues to give you, but I will tell you it won't happen on Thanksgiving Day. Now keep thinking.

Other than some big temperature swings, the weather has been decent lately. I haven't heard too many complaints, but I did have a request last week for a foot of snow. Hmmm. I don't know, she is probably in the minority because from what I've discovered, any mention of snow and people start grumbling. We should be snow-free for a little while yet. And by the way, our travel hotline has always been free, I was just trying to promote it a little on the blog.

Hope all is well with everyone. I'll get my guess out of the way, 12/21/2008 at 4pm, seems like it always likes to snow before or after work.

Ross, great pictures of you and Wade. He is so big now and still growing fast I'm sure. So is he done with the glasses now? I'm sure your getting your exercise, as I'm just beginning because Caden just started crawling this month and pulling up on stuff! Good times ahead. :-)

Anyhow it's been forever since I've blogged. I've been enjoying the blog and am glad to see Melissa back as well. On a recent comment made on the blog, I believe the new Kansas Humane Society is putting in a dog park, you can visit the site at:

Their are mulitple views, but make sure to check out the view of the aerial rendition of the whole complex. Very cool regardless.

Well I just wanted to say hi and hope all is well with everyone.

Hello Ross, I think Wichita will receive at least one inch of snow on December 10th by 9:00 PM.
