February 4, 201115 yr There was a teeny tiny bit of snow on the ground here this morning, and it was supposed to snow tomorrow but now it doesn't look like it will. :disappointed:
February 4, 201115 yr I live in the DFW area. Tomorrow is the 4th day off of school lol! And more snow tonight! I can't imagine!
February 4, 201115 yr Author the weather here lately has been insane. infact all over the us it's been crazy.
February 4, 201115 yr I know, right?! I feel bad for the people in Chicago. :( Funny enough I talked to my friend who lives in Minneapolis and they surprisingly don't have snow LOL! Usually this is the other way around.
February 4, 201115 yr We are buried here in :cowboy:Oklahoma:indianchief: under 14 inches snow and 1/4 in ice under that. Had blizzard conditions, everything closed down, emergency rescues happening all over. Current temp from the back garden thermometer now reads 3 degrees F. and dropping by the hour. More snow on the way maybe Friday, and def Sun/Monday. :earmuffs:
February 4, 201115 yr Author I'm just glad I made it home from work safe. Almost had a wreck though! :angry:
February 4, 201115 yr Oh wow! I'm glad you're okay. Stay safe. Yeah I have to go to work on Saturday and I'm afraid to drive because I have a 30 min commute down I35 and George Bush. I haven't driven my car the last 3 days.
February 4, 201115 yr Author Driving home was insane. It usually takes me about 15 minutes to get home and it took 45. I'm just sipping on coffee now. Just what I need right now.
February 4, 201115 yr :kiss: Thanks ! We luckily never lost power so we have heat and comforts, but did run out of firewood today. who knows when we will get more delivered. The police dept here even had to deliver some emergency medicine yesterday , there was no way of going anywhere. Here is an example of what is going on on the roads, people stranded all over or snowed in completely. Pics from around my area, also proving Okies(even British ones ! ) are a tough lot and know how to take it all in stride ! :D
February 4, 201115 yr OMG you really are snowed in! Thanks so much for the pictures! I'm not technically snowed in but driving is out of the picture.
February 4, 201115 yr those snow pictures against the doors are insane. I'm tired of snow here... we've had a significant snow storm (at least 3-6+ inches) every week since xmas.
February 4, 201115 yr In my part of Texas, weather reports said there'd be up to 5 inches of snow by today. We got maybe 1/2 of an inch. :| In fact, our university cancelled classes today not because of the snow, but due to the copious amounts of sleet we had, which have made the roads quite icy and dangerous to drive on.
February 4, 201115 yr those snow pictures against the doors are insane. I'm tired of snow here... we've had a significant snow storm (at least 3-6+ inches) every week since xmas. Agreed! :surprised: Yeah, same here. :| After the snowstorm two weeks ago I've been so sick of snow. There's supposed to be more snow Saturday, then flurries Tuesday, then another biggie Thursday. :| Wimpy dusting. :phu: Only kidding, that's pretty impressive for Texas! :P In my part of Texas, weather reports said there'd be up to 5 inches of snow by today. We got maybe 1/2 of an inch. :| In fact, our university cancelled classes today not because of the snow, but due to the copious amounts of sleet we had, which have made the roads quite icy and dangerous to drive on. Yeah, my mom's work has a big division in Texas and they've been shut down the past two days because the ice was so bad. :uhoh:
February 4, 201115 yr :bomb: The local weather just said another 15 inches more coming !:bigcry: I. cry.
February 4, 201115 yr In regard to the TEXAS snow: ________________________ BREAKING: At least 6 people hurt by falling ice at Cowboys stadium, where Super Bowl will be held ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) - At least six people were injured by falling ice at Cowboys Stadium after another blast of winter slammed North Texas on Friday, a Super Bowl official said. Arnie Valdez with the Super Bowl safety committee said one person was critically injured and taken to a hospital. He did not immediately have details about the others and could not say why those injured were at the stadium. "The ice and snow melting off of the Cowboys Stadium roof has caused several sliding snow falls onto the plaza," NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said. He said most stadium entrances had been closed Friday afternoon. The National Weather Service had issued a winter storm warning Friday for Arlington, home of the $1.3 billion Cowboys Stadium where the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Green Bay Packers will play this weekend for the NFL title. Forecasters expect a mostly sunny Super Bowl Sunday with highs in the 40s, and organizers said last week that the stadium's retractable roof will be closed. The latest punch of unusual cold and snow hit a city still struggling to recover from Tuesday's ice storm, part of a massive system that paralyzed a large swath of the country with blizzards, thundersnow and bone-chilling temperatures this week. http://www.wxyz.com/dpp/news/national/breaking%3A-5-people-hurt-by-falling-ice-at-cowboys-stadium%2C-where-super-bowl-will-be-held
