White Christmas for South Texas?

#1 Postby corpusbreeze » Wed Dec 22, 2004 1:26 pm

It seems the unthinkable may happen this year. Forecast here in Corpus are showing some snow here Friday and Saturday. I hope its enough to build a S.Tex snowman. :D

Get ready to keel!! They probably have a better chance in B'ville and Corpus than we do of getting snow unless that low tracks further North.

I'll eat my keyboard if there is snow on the ground down there... Maybe some snow falling, but that'll be it IMO.

I'm betting we are going to have a good snow fall. Why? :?:

When the local TV mets say we are getting a trace or a brief rain shower, you can count on an all day rain event. The same is being said of the snow/sleet/ice event. If stay below freezing from Thursday PM till Saturday, we have a chance to have some good frozen precip of one sort or another.



Either way, it will feel like Christmas and I will not be wearing shorts this Christmas . :D :D :D :D :D

I hope ya'll get snow down there!! And I'm hoping we do too!

This is really exciting...I just hope we don't get our dreams squashed. This is the closest we've come to snow, much less snow at Christmas time, in many years!!

:lol:

Oh... and I don't mean a little snow on top of the cars or a dusting in the grass... you have to be able to measure it, meaning at least a half inch.

Not here... it was about 50 miles south of where I was living at the time. I had a puny inch.

It wasn't cold at Christmas. :wink:
