i sure wish everybody would get some of the white stuff. I am going to sound like i'm hating on you texans up north(DFW) area, but you did get some wintry weather early in the season. So now it should be our turn in south texas lol, jk. :froze:

The President of our University is about to speak. Hearing it was a false alarm, but hasn't been confirmed, yet.

Hope that it is a false alarm.

NORTH TO NORTHEAST WINDS OF 15 TO 30 MPH WILL MAKE IT FEEL LIKE
IN THE 20S.

WIDESPREAD LIGHT RAIN WILL DEVELOP THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY AS
AN UPPER AIR DISTURBANCE APPROACHES AND COMBINES WITH A LOW
PRESSURE COASTAL TROUGH. AS THE RAIN MIXES WITH THE DEEPENING COLD
AIR...WINTRY PRECIPITATION IS POSSIBLE. ATMOSPHERIC TEMPERATURE

THERE REMAINS SOME UNCERTAINTY ON HOW COLD TEMPERATURES MIGHT BECOME

SIGNIFICANT WEATHER EVENT. RESIDENTS OF DEEP SOUTH TEXAS ARE URGED
TO LISTEN FOR LATER UPDATES ON THIS DEVELOPING WINTRY WEATHER
EVENT.

I hope you guys don't get the wintry weather we got, because the 1/2" or so of ice accumulation wasn't much fun to play or drive in. It did make for some pretty pictures though.

I do hope all of you south of us get enough sleet and/or snow to build at least a 2' snowcreature.

1 inch according to Euro 12z output. Whether southeast Texas sees ice (i.e., freezing rain or sleet) or snow is very tricky.

Is this a bad time for me to say that I'm back in the States from Australia? As some may recall, I appear to be "Lucy" since the last time I went to Australia was February 2011. Some of you may remember that particular month. ;-)

I'll see what I can do about getting my flights to DFW and AUS canceled. :-P

Cheers,
Cameron

IF that happens, Houston will close down. Completely. LOL. It is bad enough with rain. It is like a town of almost 4 million cannot drive in the elements.
