Checking In From Ponca City


Carl DeWhitt
 

Wow,Kirk! We definetly have not had that kind of cold and that much snow since we have been here in Tennessee.We are about 1 degree latitude further south than Ponca City.That kind of ccold and snow would shut this place down.That is something I do not miss about Ponca City.Hang in there and 73.

WOW, we're havin' some kinda fun here in Oklahoma! I still have power but haven't been able to check messages because of extra hours of work. I have today and hopefully tomorrow off, so I'm REALLY looking forward to some DXing starting late this afternoon.

We have only around 8" of snow here but some big drifts everywhere. Tonight's low temp is predicted to be around -22C/-8F (and that's not the wind chill). It's not been that cold around here in a very long time and hopefully a very long time before that happens again.

Rob, thanks for your concern. There's nothing like having good radio friends. They're the best!
73 to everyone.

Kirk:

It's good to hear you didn't get caught out in the big chill. I also received about 203mm/8" of snow in my backyard.

You take care of yourself, and just think it will be spring-like shortly.

Richard.
