Stiff north winds just hit 10 minutes ago here in Wylie. I can hear the house pop a little and the trees whining outside.

Yeah ... what a huge disappointment. We couldn't even squeeze out a rain shower out of the deal. Pathetic.

Lake Travis is going to be just a mud puddle by Labor Day.
On a brighter note, good luck to all of you in north and northeast Texas. Enjoy the snow and sleet and take pictures and post 'em! MERRY CHRISTMAS, Y'ALL!!

Indeed there is, txsnowman1369 ... indeed there is. And for those who want to live vicariously via the TxDOT cams ... below is a link to Wichita Falls. Recent images suggest a full-fledged snowstorm for Wichita Falls!
