I’m glad to be in sunny Oklahoma and no longer in the Washington, D.C., area. Winter Storm Jonas–an unusually powerful system that is supposed to bring blizzards, ice, and massive amounts of snow–will afflict one out of four Americans this weekend. I’ve heard that where I used to live in Virginia may get up to 30 inches of snow! So to all of you affected, batten down the hatches, stay warm, and pray the electricity doesn’t go out.

Those of us who are out of it should pray for those who are in it. If the storm gives you interesting experiences, please tell about them here.

From Winter Storm Jonas to Become Dangerous East Coast Snowstorm; Blizzard Watch for D.C., Baltimore, NYC | The Weather Channel:

Winter Storm Jonas is kicking off Thursday with an initial round of snow and ice, and will turn into a major snowstorm Friday into the weekend over a large swath of the East Coast. Heavy snow is expected to fall across parts of at least 15 states, with blizzard conditions possible over parts of the Washington D.C., Baltimore and New York City metro areas. Winter Storm Jonas will also feature strong, possibly damaging winds, significant icing and coastal flooding.

As of Thursday morning, just over 73 million – or roughly one in every four Americans – were covered by either a blizzard watch, winter storm watch, winter storm warning, winter weather advisory, or freezing rain advisory from southeast Nebraska to the Carolinas to the New York City metro area.
