I'm excited to announce that I accepted a position working for fed agency, no more county EM for me. I'm staying in EM but more related to maritime/port security. Funny thing, I started a month ago but I've never been to the office, working remotely this whole time. #EMGTwitter

Happy Meteorological Winter! And thanks to @NOAAeducation, we can all share the joy (or dismay?) of the next three months!

@ChefReactions I feel she makes these catastrophes now just to troll and make your eye twitch.

Sandusky Bay, look at how far the water level has dropped, this is a new record low water level based on the gauge at Toledo. #winter @NWSCLE

[NWS Cleveland @NWSCLE]

Conditions aren't as brutal as Friday, but cold and wind continue today. Some light snow is occurring this morning with patchy blowing snow still an issue in open areas. We are watching lake effect potential along the eastern lakeshore tonight into Christmas Day. #OHwx #PAwx

BIG-TIME SEICHE storm surge flooding at Buffalo Naval Park with winds over 60 mph. Dangerous #blizzard conditions

[NWS Buffalo @NWSBUFFALO]

A short clip from a @NITTEC traffic camera of what conditions currently look like on Route 5 in downtown Buffalo. Please abide by any travel bans or advisories set by local officials, they are in place for a reason.

[NWS Buffalo @NWSBUFFALO]

Here are some significant details for the upcoming storm:
* flash freeze
* strong winds - to 65mph
* heavy lake effect snow
* localized blizzard conditions, whiteouts
* power outages/tree damage
* difficult to impossible travel at times
* wind chills 10 to 20 below zero

[NWS Cleveland @NWSCLE]

Highest confidence with the holiday weekend storm system remains to be the strong winds and extreme cold. Wind gusts could reach as high as 50-60 mph through Saturday evening. Strong winds coupled with arctic air will lead to wind chill values between -15°F and -25°F. #ohwx #pawx

[NWS Cleveland @NWSCLE]

A multi-hazard storm system will bring strong winds, extreme cold, and some snow to the region from late Thursday night through Saturday. We are most confident in the wind and cold, but the snowfall forecast still remains less certain. Prepare today for later this week!
