I'm midway between Houston and Dallas. No snow here, although the weatherman has predicted freezing rain tonight. It's 31 here now.
Last Tuesday night we had freezing rain. Yesterday I was riding my bike in shorts!

Texas weather! One day it's 80, the next it's 40! I prefer the 80 type days.

Im in Denver and we had the coldest night on record last night: NEGATIVE 19.

Now coming from Alaska, that is normal for me.....but not normal for Denver.

Global Warming my arse.

BTW im from Dallas and I remember growing up wearing shorts in the winter.

I was wearing short sleeves yesterday.

Now it is about 20!

BTW I lived near Denver for a while. I remember it being in th -20 range a couple of times.

Me too. I much prefer the heat. That is easy for me to deal with, so long as there is plenty of water to be had, but there's no escaping cold.

I am a bit taken off guard about the snow in houston, but having lived just a bit north of you asmeone2, we got snow (maybe not MUCH), at least once a year. At the beginning of 2005, we got snow that lasted for THREE whole days and we could actually build ONE whole snowman (think I have the pics still on my computer somewhere lol! Would have been a treat for any northerner stuck here in texas, albeit for a Texan like me, it was not a pleasant experience *shrugs*

We got sleet here last week (austin) and tonight it is FREEEEZING!! (of couse to me, anything 60 or below is considered freezing, but this time I REALLY mean it .. 30 here right now).
