Celebrity News Notes and events.
A strong system approaches bringing rain up to a half an inch and sleet.
In a post ‘Oprah’ show world, why not a book club fight club?
Rain tapers off and changes to snow as winds gust to 35+ mph. Clear skies and moderate temperatures will make for a beautiful March.
This day in 1977:
A blizzard struck Northeastern Iowa leading to gusts up to 55 mph and drifts up to 6 feet high, despite only 1 to 2 inches of new snow falling.

Times have changed for Oprah Winfrey: Her long-running talk show is off daytime TV, she is heading up her own network — and she’s trying to avoid tweeting to viewers with Nielsen boxes in the process. To aid in her transition, Jimmy Kimmel offered a few new show ideas for her OWN network on his post-Oscars show last night — and some of those ideas really held some promise. Exhibit A: Oprah’s Book Club Fight Club! After unsuccessfully pitching the media personality ideas for “Oprah Repo’s Her Favorite Things” and “The Jimmy and Oprah Celebrity Interview,” Kimmel took another swing with a concept for a more actionpacked book club. “Let’s be honest, reading is like, the most boring thing in the world,” Kimmel said in the skit. “So this show takes your book club and gives it a twist.” The ensuing promo showed Oprah Winfrey getting into fisticuffs over “To Kill a Mockingbird,” which is totally understandable, because we would throw down over Boo Radley, too. Winfrey did not go for his show pitch, which is too bad. Really, the only thing that we think could best “Oprah’s Book Club Fight Club” would be if Kimmel actually made “Movie: The Movie” happen.
