    Sweet. I get to feel possibly single-digit to 11 degree weather in Dallas accompanied by negative wind chills. I hope the pipes don't explode. lol. :(

    Gonna be icy and snowy up here - I think I'll just work from home until the end of the week if the roads are bad.

    Latest forecast has a 40% chance of snow very late Thursday and Friday.

    Should be fun.

    I've heard people saying that in places like Chicago where it snows a ton, people are still terrible drivers in the snow.

    Now imagine how good the driving will be when you have a ton of people who have hardly ever driven in the snow?

    It's about to get NASTY in Chicago over the next 48 hours. They're saying it might be the GREATEST snowstorm in Chicago OF ALL TIME.

    Beaumont holds the state record for most snow from a single storm, 30 inches in a February 1895 snowstorm. That rivals many northern cities for biggest snowfalls. Houston had 20 inches and Galveston 15 from that same storm.

    You can't do that. They are keeping the roads clear because of the Super Bowl. So, it's not your typical panic driven ice/snow day. All the roads will be cleared (supposedly). Otherwise, the Super Bowl will take note they didn't do a good job in bad weather and skip us on another bid (like Atlanta ten years ago wasn't prepared for it). They started planning for it six months ago.

    You're going to work. If I'm going, then you're going. I sh_t you not. lol

    sorry s land balla...i borrowed your post for my own spin.

    I wanna congratulate the coming snow...and I'm gonna let you finish...but Beyonce had the greatest snow of all time!...OF ALL TIME! (Kanye West is referring to a little known party at Beyonce's home where there was complimentary cocaine in a big mound on a coffee table.)
