How much are you guys supposed to get? My cousin sent me some pics of snow in Corpus a few years back. Snow on palm trees, very strange.
Congrats on 1000 posts!
Global warming…whatever.
Oddly it's rather mild here...
Same here. School ski may indeed be cancelled because of lack of snow, which means I won't get a day off to sleep till 11. :cry:Quote:

Wait, snow in a desert? O my global warming for you, no wait
Record warm December here (second warmest since 1900), and January isn't much colder compared what it usually is.Quote:

Wimpy southerners.
Late last year my home got about a foot or more of snow in about 24 hours - but that didn't delay my trip across the state by much. Just this weekend I was skiing in 0 degree weather - frostbite time on exposed skin 10 to 30 minutes.
CR
What you worried about strike? YOu have a 4 wheel drive truck don't you?
San Antonio is next to a river, and in the plain's......:dizzy2: Southwest a ways and you've got yourself a desert though.Quote:

I lived in Oklahoma for a while. The snow will clear up in a few hours. Real sad though, if your a kid and you see all the snow melting away. Then you notice when you throw snowballs the ice is melting, so your hands freeze.
Mmmm, maybe Strikey isn't refering to the cold stuff falling out of the sky.
Could he have been a naughty boy in San Antonio...? We'll know if tomorrow he posts about wicked pink elephants they've got up there. :elephant:

When I was a kid there was usually enough snow around the city you could go skiing in the park.
These days you need to go north of the damn Arctic Circle to see the stuff more than a couple of days randomly scattered over the winter.
You know how old folks tend to complain how they had it tougher as kids than modern children ? Well, they're justified in this point at least. No worries abut having to trudge through snowstorms at seven in the morning on the way to school.
Oddly enough, we only just got enough snow to bother yesterday. It seems as though the places where it never snows are seeing the most snow this winter.
Though most of you guys might not think it, it usually snows in Hawaii. Just the snow is found on the Big Island on the mountains Mauna Kea, and Mauna Loa. I was a bit bummed over the Holiday to not be able to go sking there like I have in past years.
Right because if the average temperature goes up THAT MEANS THE TEMPERATURE EVERYWHERE GOES UP WITH THE SAME AMOUNT. :laugh4:Quote:

Then came 2007.
This January alone, we've already had seven or eight days of snow.
Very weird.
El Nino has been very good for me. Mild winter temperatures, until this week, with little snow, plenty of rain. Unfortunately it's not so good for other areas of the world, but that's weather for you.
Deal with it.Quote:

Heck, even the damn mushrooms haven't entered their "winter sleep" state...
It didn't. Got blown off my bike twice today.Quote:
