Texas Winter 2010-2011

[DonWrk]

Still coming down pretty good here.

NWS and local mets disagree. Local mets are saying mid 20s if we're lucky today. NWS says lower 30s.

Too bad DFW Airport was like 1 mile off the heavy snows (5+) to be in the books. Fine line from Dallas to Tarrant counties.

[iorange55]

Wow I thought out to the west they'd get more with bands moving in overnight.

Corsicana 6.20" Officially.. I pegged that 2 days ago.. Lets see if they can't up it to 7" with some more light snow on tap for 10am..

This is hilarioius...maybe they should cancel the superbowl!

This proves that Jerry is jinxed. While he is in charge his team will never win another championship.......

This was also unexpected around here. This is one of those sneaky storms. I'm on my way to 5-6+ inches.

I agree... I wish DFW intl was in the 5+ too since thats my doorstep...but I had 3" last i checked.. going to go out and check to see how much
I got from this second band sweeping through.

We got less than Portastorm. A layer of ice, then that lumpy stuff then maybe .1/4" of snow on top. Sun is out but I don't hear melting yet.

Cold water pipe in kitchen froze. Was fine up till sometime this morning. I'm hoping it will defrost without breaking, our next door neighbor lost hot and cold but the ice melted and they're workin again.

This is pretty much just like last year. Except not quite as much, but I mean besides the difference on the trees you can't notice much different between last year and now.

Can't see the sidewalk, or street. Birdhouse has a pile of 7 inches on top of it. What a week this has been.

Just started snowing here in north Garland again.

But this is Rocky Mountain powder at its finest!!!! JB brought up a thought on his blog - is this the first snow on snow in Dallas during modern times ??

Lol, you are correct. I was just looking outside and if you look at where some snow has blown away from the pack you can just tell powerdy it is. Looks like you could stuff a pillow with it and sleep on it.

I have a feeling we'll see a lot more "firsts" next winter too.

Ain't over for Dallas...

Possible snow flurries Sunday afternoon...and more snow next Wednesday.

[DonWrk]

I stayed up till 5 watching the snow last night and woke up around 9 and couldn't believe it was still snowing. It was a great thing to wake up to.

We had that happen in 1983...luckily the pipe didn't break.

Worried about my outside faucets.

WIth this much "weather" we will not see melt off this weekend likely; therefore, with the potential system coming in next week that has been forecast, does that mean there will be an opportunity for snow on snow on snow?

Sounds intersting.

So whats the cloud coverage going to be like after this band goes through?

[Tejas89]

The sun starting to come out in Arlington. Still light snow... Very bright now.

[Ellsey]

Well, we have about 6 inches here, and it's still coming down. My neighbor has a old Porsche parked by his pool (yeah, I don't know), and it is almost buried by snow.

[kb75007]

I really don't want the skys to become mostly sunny today that kind of kills it!
