East/S.E. #Nebraska
Plz rethink going out #NYE & opt to stay home. The conditions will be down right dangerous & even life threatening. IF you insist, at the very least take thick blankets, warm clothes, charged cells & a survival kit with you.

#Snow #Nebraska

Predicted snowfall amounts. Besides the above have battery cables, a mini shovel, cat liter/sand for traction & a headlamp, flashlight. Let someone know where you're going & what route.

#Snow #Nebraska
Probable snow amounts, but keep in mind it will be driven by north wind gusts as high as 28 & wind chill values will be as low as -29.

Wear or have thick gloves, hats, scarves & several pair of winter socks with you. [wool? thermal?] & heavy duty snow boots. No high heeled boots ladies....we're talking frost bite. Warmth is key!

If you have 1? Throw in a flashlight or head lamp that also has the red blinking light. In white out conditions it's easier to spot. Or tie something bright to your antenna. Bright orange/red any color that will "pop" in snow.

Before I head back to #Boulder, #Nebraska, here's the forecast laid out by the Omaha #NWS. Please think before you go out tonight or tomorrow because breathing will make your lungs burn/hurt outside.

#windchill #Platte #Colfax #Butler #Stanton Image
O'Neill....don't go out tonight, Not with an expected 32 below wind chill. It will only take minutes for frost bite then hypothermia to set it. Don't risk it.

Be sure to check the air in your tires and that you have plenty of gas. Plan at least 2 evac routes in case 1 is blocked or closed.

If car is in garage, back it out and turn it around so you're heading out. Throw to go gear in. Know how to open garage door manually. [power goes out when poles/lines go down]

#GlassFire #BoysenFire #ShadyFire
Let someone know where you are heading, and text them when you've arrived. Don't call...text. Calls drain batteries quickly.

Ok....#Bobcat peeps - we need to talk. If you haven't already done so, read this part below from @lacfd

Fire behavior in Branch IV (Juniper Hills to Piñon Hills) forecasted to be extreme w/ an afternoon S-SW wind.

#BobcatFire
Extreme fire behavior in Branch IV with afternoon S-SW winds. Those of you in this & the surrounding area of Branch IV need to be hyper vigilant today b/c your life could depend on it. The wind can turn fires in a second so do not let your guard down.

#BobcatFire
Yes...I know what you're thinking. You don't even know where Branch IV...well you will. I want everyone in [or who knows someone in] this dangerous erratic area to keep these maps handy. Ok?

There are 3. One that shows Branch 4, the PIO & the Evac area map.
