Texans, what's happening where you are?

I'm in south Austin and it's now snowing pretty steadily, it's accumulating a bit on the layer of ice that was already coating the ground. It's beautiful, I'm so glad it changed to snow!

I guess we won't hear from anyone who lost their power for a while...

Northeast Dallas County - Garland, cloudy and no percepitation. We actually escaped the brunt of the ice/freezing rain that came thru the greater Dallas/Ft Worth metroplex this weekend. Lots of rain on Friday and Saturday. Temps for us never hit freezing like they did in other areas by us. Freezing rain that moved across the North Texas region on Saturday night missed us by a few miles and then went straight north. LOL!!! Clear roads on Sunday morning by us even though we did get the freezing rain that morning about 5:30. Melted w/ the sun. Temps dropped yesterday but our roads were clear. Now it is cloudy and supposed to get snow flurries today and tomorrow. Have yet to see any here at the ranch. As I say though, getting snow just means the sun will soon be shining to melt it all away.

Figures. Austin gets snow, and all I got up in Plano was 1/4" of ice to chip off my car, including around the doors, yesterday.

How funny!! I did the same thing last night trying to get the lid off the trash can. I kept knocking it down to the ground, picking it up, and knocking it down again until the thick ice was off enough to remove the lid. I'm in Central TX.

El Paso was very cold today. My thermometer said 32-34 degrees for most of the day. It was dry, no ice, just very cold

We had no walk in customers all of last week. But TODAY the coldest friggin' day of the week I had 4 walk ins!

Here in Midland/Odessa it all started last Friday with freezing fog. Then it was below 32 degrees for several days and it snowed last night. Now the snow is melting and rain is expected tomorrow, then snow again on Friday! It makes me miss the hot dry days of summer.
