Snow?

[crt360]

It was around 80 this morning and now it's snowing/sleeting with a wind chill of 18 here in Central Texas. 

[Tallpine]

That sounds like Montana weather changes.

Or a Texas "blue norther"

[myrockfight]

Global warming!!! DUH!    :|

[BridgeRunner]

Seriously? Oh, that is nice.

My partner in a clinic has been bitching and moaning about the hideous Michigan weather since about mid-September.  She's going home to Texas this week.

Sounds like Texas weather has finally wised up and is emulating its higher sibling Colorado.

Sunset last Sunday: temps around 67 F, sunny and light breeze.

Sunset last Monday: temps around 20 F, overcast with heavy snow and 1 inch of accumulation (of a total of 9 inches we got outside Boulder).

Yes, but in the summer, your place turns into Hell.

[myrockfight]

It gets a little hellish to here in the winter. But today it was 82. I still love it.

[Fly320s]

Yesterday at 4pm at my house was 25 with light snow coverage. This morning at 4am, light rain and 55.

Hey, Gore, stop monkeying with theweather!

[Nitrogen]

Yesterday: 70.  Spent the day outside with my dog.  (I'm off this week.)

Today: started off nice at 60, then went down into the 30's all of a sudden.  My joints ache.

Later this week, back into the 60's.  Gotta love Texas in Winter.

That's Texas....if you don't like the weather now, just wait a minute....

At least in Texas, we're allowed to shoot at the Devil....

Depends where you are in Texas.  Houston or the coast?  Yep.

Further inland where the humidity is lower, not so much.

I don't know about that - I lived on the outskirts of Austin (pretty far inland) for about 10 years, and summers were routinely MISERABLE.  The only thing that made it tolerable was the swimming pool.

First winter we were there, there were 3 days in JANUARY over 90 degrees.  It SUCKED.  And then, next year, the first snow in 10 years, a whopping 1/4" (measured), shut EVERYTHING down for 3 full days :rolleyes:.

This front needs to get on through.  Going fishing friday.

Thank you, General Sheridan.

[Stetson]

The 33F with wind chill factor of 16F isn't an indicator of a warming trend here in DFW area...

[bedlamite]

We had no less than a foot of global warming here on the shore of Lake Michigan yesterday with a high of 25, this morning it's a balmy 8 degrees. More snow is in the forecast.

[K Frame]

It's pushing 60+ degrees here in NoVa today.

Tomorrow?

Back to the 30s and 40s.

I guess it depends on what you like.  I used to work with a girl from Michigan.  She much preferred the 90+ summers over 25- winters.

Yep, I don't want to freeze again this weekend deer hunting.

[Manedwolf]

It snowed yesterday, now it's about 60.

Count me in on that. I'd rather sweat than freeze.

Growing up and still living in Georgia I almost never had or have to deal with severe Winter weather. Two Winters in Bavaria courtesy of Uncle Sam cured me of any desire I may have had, or even thought to have had, of living in a place where it gets really cold in Winter. I wouldn't mind visiting such a place, I've never skied on snow and would like to try it, but living there ain't on.

Egh...


Please, I grew up in Illinois where we have REAL winters. I'd MUCH rather be in -25 than in 100+. It's really simple: in the winter, I can keep putting clothes on- I'm rarely cold.

In the summer, I can only take off so many clothes... and even if I went beyond decency, I'd still be miserable (as, no doubt, would everyone around me)

[grampster]

Rookies!  Been in the 20's in the daytime, low teens at night.  Snow is over the knee now.

Perzactly.

A childhood in upstate NY (hellllllo, lake-effect snow! ), along with frequent winter stays there as an adult, have left me with no concerns about dealing with cold.  Heat - well, basically, I can rely on the air conditioning, and... yeah, that's about it.  You can keep the heat.

Which, naturally, is why I'm now living right off the Capitol Beltway in Northern VA, where summers are often nearly as unpleasant as in central TX :rolleyes:.  The things one does for love...

I love how it was supposed to be 43 here today.  It barely got above freezing at ALL.
