The Big Dump of 2013 Heading Our Way?

A major winter storm is heading our way – and could dump anywhere from 7 – 15 inches in our area.

Further south and to the east that prediction could go even higher and get a lot more complicated and dangerous with wind gusts potentially in the range of 60 – 75 miles per hour. (That’s as of 3PM Thursday)

The headlines for our area from the National Weather Service:
