I'm bracing myself for the cold front coming into town this week. As previously posted on the blog, I recently moved from Houston. Personally, I'm not too sure about this ice/snow/sleet event for later this week. It's been awhile since I've driven in wintry weather. My dog, Buddy, shown previously, has never stepped on the white stuff. His face should be pretty interesting. Wondering where we've moved to! My friends have warned me to get the shovel out and clear a path for him outside in the yard. Well, you do what you got to do for your loved ones.

Professionally, I've got my game face on. I'm ready to cover all angles in the Metro and keep you informed. I love covering weather events. I know how frustrating it can be to drive on ice, black ice, snow and slush. Sometimes it can be down-right scary. So, keep it tuned to us, as you know John, Tierney and Frank have a serious side but they have a light side and will help all of us make it through, hopefully with a smile on our face. See you in the morning! - Julie
