Texas weather?!! HAHAHAHA

Have you ever been to Colorado? We are actually the ones who are famous for that. Wednesday and Thursday it was gorgeous and sunny around 70, Friday it dumped 2 ft of snow, and today it's sunny again. I literally went from gardening in the backyard in shorts and sandals to having my campus closed due to snow and wearing Sorels in less than 24 hours.

PS: Linus has given me his description of "snow" in Texas. If you can even call it that. :rolleyes:

Hey, we had 18" the other month... that's a crapload for Texas.


But you forget, I'm from Michigan... what Texans view as snow I view as slush.

the other day i went into class, its 70 degrees out, sunny, beautiful day. within in 30 minutes of being in class, is starts hailing outside (only about marble sized). 45 minutes later its sunny again....

yeah snow in texas is pretty lame. it does it about every 5 years or so in austin. People in this town really dont know what to do with icy precipitation, and the city shuts down at the first sign. to be fair tho, the roads arent treated with salt, they use gravel....

Psh, atleast with the cold you can put more warm blankets on.

With the heat you lose lots of $$$!

My body isn't wired that way. I can't function in the cold for long. I'd still rather sweat and lose money in the summer than be miserable in this stupid cold weather.

Let's just keep it in the 70s and sunny with no wind. I'll be happy then.


PS-- Did you get that much snow last night?! I have literally NONE here in FW.

That would be perfect :) But I'd much rather be cold cause you can layer. When it's hot there's only so much you can take off before you get the cops called

When I took the dog outside at about 11pm last night there was about 2-3 inches on the ground. This is what my truck looked like when I woke up this morning. 8am

Any ideas on how to remove hundreds of microscopic almost invisible fiberglass splinters from my arms? I was putting up an old fiberglass basketball backboard and now I am in lots of pain.......

Woke up at 630 this morning throwing up. Proceeded to vomit all day barely able to keep water down.

Ditto with my mom and my brother. Now my sister and dad have whatever it is.


We don't live together, and none of us ate the same food for the past few days. Talk about totally random.
