Tulsa Ice Storm

Below is the Oklahoma mesonet map as of 1:10pm today. The reason I am posting this is because it shows the first signs of the ongoing ice storm in Oklahoma. You will notice a path from southwest Oklahoma through central OK that where the wind barbs are missing. This is because the anemometers are covered with ice. I will continue to post updates here as the storm progresses in Tulsa. Currently, ice is covering elevated surfaces but the roads seem to be fine. Heavier amounts of freezing rain and sleet are expected this afternoon with a change to snow overnight and tomorrow.
