Global warming.  Ask Al Gore.  He'll tell you all about it.

The snow is coming down heavy at my house right now. Not sticking to the ground, but fat flakes nonetheless...

WTF?

It was snowing pretty nicely in Georgetown earlier tonight. Didn't stick on the ground, but it coated the cars quite nicely. One of the few times that I've actually experienced snowfall.


My roommate (from Massachusetts) got a kick out of all us Texans' bewilderment.

We got sleet at my house (Great Hills, roughly), and roofs, cars, lawns and decks had accumulation this morning.

I am in Wichita on business and its like hanging out in an elevator with a fake snow machine. Ice blowing in your face at high rates of speed from every direction.

I can't believe that I could be coming home to more sleet/snow in Houston.

I suckered my roommate into coming outside so I could pelt him with a "scraped together off the roof of his car" slushball. He didn't find it NEARLY as funny as I did.

I was suffering through that weather Monday in Holland, longing for the 70's & 80's of home.  Got home late last night in the middle of it. ? ? ?!!

It is 53 degrees down here and the people here are bundled up like Ralphie's little brother Randy from a Christmas Story.

They literally look like they are ready to take in a game at Lambeau Field (sans Cheese wedge hats)

I got him right in the middle of his chest, and his jacket wasn't zipped all the way up. I think that was part of the reason he wasn't so entertained by it.

Snowed several inches in Mont Belvieu tonight.  Stuck on the ground.  Amazingly pretty.
