Letter from the Editor Just when we thought 2021 might be giving us a bit more of a break than 2020, we get our first “Hold my beer!” moment for the year: an epic winter storm that saw record-breaking low temperatures. Not just in Oklahoma, but across the region. We turned to Moore’s own Damon Lane, the top weather dog at KOCO, to walk us through why the February winter storm was one to be remembered down through the ages. Assistant City Manager Jerry Ihler also gives us a behindthe-scenes look at how Moore managed the streets and frozen water system so well. Here’s hoping March is filled with blue skies and warm temperatures!
