  1. Mammoth Ski Resort is getting shredded by heavy snow!!!!! At least 4-5 inches of fresh snow are evident in the Woolly Lot cam!!! Man that snow is COMIN' DOWN!!! https://www.mammothmountain.com/on-the-mountain/mammoth-webcam/woolly-cam https://www.mammothmountain.com/on-the-mountain/mammoth-webcam/main-lodge 14 degrees and snow is piling up! The weather pattern in south Texas is changin and I am extremely happy right now!!!! It is 60/58, HUMID MY FAVORITE WEATHER DOWN HERE No. More. Cold. More rain and spring is definitely on the way! You can tell the North American pattern is changing because of what is happening in California right now. 58 degree dewpoints are so fun, I wish the dewpoint was 77!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Or even 83!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  2. Glad you got that out. Nitrous is indeed very good. When I had all my teeth extracted in 2015 in Texas, I used a mild anxiety med plus Nitrous and a metric ton of novocaine. I was in la la land, didnt feel a thing, not even when the dentist had to break up a few back molars then pull the pieces out. I was also blasting 1970s and 1980s tracks on some headphones. THAT, made it downright fun. I have half seriously thought about breaking into a dentist office and breathing in all the nitrous in the middle of the night. I LOVE that stuff! Great times! Damn man that's the BEST stuff in the whole world. Recovery was challenging as well as adapting to having no natural teeth when I got ravenous, but I REALLY enjoyed all that nitrous! I got to just kick back and breathe it all in for hours! You haven't really lived, until you breathe in that nitrous so deep! Just relax and kick back, you'll have the most profound revelations! lol
  3. Don't get many chances to do a SOTS down here in the South. All day yesterday the sky was dark and low clouds moved in, lower and lower and darker and darker. Forget a high of 37. We barely eked out 30. NE breezes made it feel colder. Then, as the sun went down and dusk gathered, I got hit in the face by light sleet pellets. Last night much to my surprise we observed surface frigidization right from the first sleet pellet/flake. That ground was COLD, alright. It started out as light sleet and a few flakes of snow. The ground, road, deck, everything caved in right from the beginning. I was expecting only a coating, a standard Washington DC car topper lol. The sleet and some snowflakes continued as I tried to keep that nasty NE wind from uncovering the fig tree. I had been so sure of a mild Texas winter! Now I was scrambling to cover the lemon tree and the fig tree. I was also packing blankets around the well pump. The Austin city lights were reflecting off the low pressing cloud deck, of which there were probably at least three, I was sure. Isentropic upglide continued transporting Gulf of America moisture over the frigid Arctic dome. This storm was vividly reminding me of a typical North Virginian snowstorm. The sleet fell more thickly. The ground was getting very white, it didnt even look like nighttime out, between the low cloud deck and the whitening ground. I used two tarps and blankets then put a heater under it to keep the fig tree warm. I took a jebwalk and saw that all of our water containers were blocks of ice covered in sleet and snow. Everything was turning white. This sure did not seem much like south central Texas. The temperature had fallen to 27 then stayed there. The dewpoint had been 3. Now it was rising through the upper teens fast. That wind cut right through me! I had three coats on, a hat, scarf and gloves. I am not accustomed to this. I am much more used to 68/50 weather and would not have minded 83/63. That wind slung that sleet right into my eyes! As the night wore on the temperature held steady but the sleet/snow mix continued then it changed to light snow. By 3am we had this band over us, it was light to a little moderate snow. It was still snowing at 6 am when I reluctantly went to bed. We ended up with an inch of snow. In places there were 2 and 3 inch drifts. We got up to 39 today and most of the snow melted, except the 3 to 7 percent to the north of sunlight blocking objects. I even tried to shovel it up some lol. It was hard to believe. It has been such a pleasant fall/winter, we really thought we'd get away with some cold weather and no ice and snow but here I was stayin up all night No Sleep Til Brooklyn style in South Texas lol. The State of the Snowpack is that about 93 percent of it melted today in the sun and 39 degree weather. But there is snow on the driveway and patches on the north side of the house and garage, especially where I tried my best to pile it up. It was SO FUN watching those dendrites blow right past our streetlight! This is NOT something you expect to see down here in the Southland! I am sure many in New Orleans and up the southeastern seaboard are feeling the same way. Wow, 10 inches in the Big Easy! Look out, Mid Atlantic! YOU'RE NEXT!
  4. Carolinas will get some snow. Now if we could just get this band just a bit northwest.
  5. I am jealous. You are 85 degrees and I am only 33 degrees with some snow on the ground here in SOUTH Texas. Mid Atlantic WILL get more snow!
  6. Buda got an inch of snow. We are now about 34 percent above normal for the season! Texas style keg party incoming. It was fun watching the aggregates blow right past the streetlights! YOU ARE NEXT, MID ATLANTIC! Wow Mtn Geek! This is a hilarious writeup! I think you and GeorgeBM should collab on a massive blizzard story for Feb 1 on this thread!
  7. Bands are forming over south Texas. One is training over Buda with all snow now, light to moderate, 27/25, NE winds gusting to 27mph. About a half inch of snow, some sleet embedded earlier.
  8. In Feb is when DC Region gets some of its greatest blizzards. Feb 19, 1979 (19 inches) and Feb 11, 1983 (14 inches) come to mind. Might happen again. Might be Commanders hit the SB AND you get a big blizzard next month. Ralph you awarded me that hotdog but I insist you guys might get a Presidents Day Bliz this winter AND Jayden will also kick serious ass, would not surprise me Commanders get into the SB.
  9. Its not often you see WHITE snow/sleet radar elements developing over south central Texas. Luckily for us: Should be transitory and light, only about an inch. Tomorrow 37 degrees should melt it good. Not so lucky for us will be frigid lows around 13 tomorrow night with refreezing. I really wish I had not been laughing at people slippin on ice on YouTube. Karma can be a brutal b!tch. I gotta walk the damn dog tomorrow night. Pavement will be a world-class Olympic ice rink and I am no longer young nor can I dance on the ice like Michael Jackson. I'll fall and I will go down, HARD! Look out middle Gulf Coast! They could get slammed with a foot of snow. But we have upper 60s to look forward to come Saturday and Sunday.
  10. Now its an outright Winter Storm Warning. Down here a couple inches of snow/sleet is a major winter storm lol. We are busy as heck trying to cover the fig tree and various plants. Its going to freeze for days. There's good chance the water pump will freeze too. Tuesday night is forecast to fall to 11. I am going to be carrying water like an Oklahoma Sooner.
  11. I just can't believe the Commanders. Wow wow wow! If they should manage to win this next game..........
  12. Just amazing. I would think about New Orleans except bad bad weather.
  13. We thought we were being treated to a rare mild winter in south central Texas. No dice. It is colder than expected. Already 28/10 with north gusts to 43 mph. Just got handed a local Winter Storm Watch. Down here a couple inches is a winter storm. Heavy snow and sleet are expected Mon night and Tuesday morning. We are going to lose the fig tree. This stuff could start as freezing drizzle and even some light freezing rain. That is really BAD juju for the overpasses down here! It was SUPPOSED to stay well east. I jinxed us. I been laughing at people falling on ice on YouTube. Now, it is gonnabe my effing turn. I am not up to this anymore. Climate change don't care. I got a REALLY, REALLY BAD FEELING ABOUT THIS. It was supposed to be not as cold, and bad snow and ice in New Orleans. Naaaaah. Sure enough Austin has to have some too. It's going to be BAD down here. DC is next. Reports of Winter is over were waaaaaaay premature.
  14. And this storm gets captured for 14 days as terminal snow accums pile up and pile up. People have to climb out of their 3rd story windows just to enjoy a jebwalk. The snow is so damn deep all the cars are buried in snow.
  15. Good for you. Lets hope this happens again!
  16. Someone needs to wager a million dollars on this roulette wheel.
  17. You guys are gonna get plenty of snow from this. You've won already.
  18. Trust me on this. It's going to get very cold. Even in south Texas. I will lose all my plants. I will have no water. I will be channeling west North Carolina, Swannanoa for a while. I might see accumulating snow in Buda. But DCers. You guys may truly get obliterated. It's going to get 1977 cold there. But with snow. Just stock up. Get 25000 IPAs. Get 45 shovels and ten snowblowers. Stock up on food. Be ready to stay awake for 10 days or more. Because you will be tracking like no other time in history. Just trust me. These are interesting times we are living in. The snow drought is over. It's snowBlitz time. Millville --- You are gonna have the time of your life!!
  19. Next week folks. Need to keep a serious eye on models, and stay frosty. We could even see some frozen right down here in Buda TX. You all REALLY need to keep a serious weather eye on the models next 8 days. Remember, the Jebman called it. Remember that as you clamber out of your windows to get out the damn house come Jan 22 or so. THIS COULD BE VERY BAD. Or GOOD, depending on your point of view, lol. Carry on.
  20. Ouch that is a direct hit on Austin. I don't even want to think about how cold that would be, a reprise of Feb 2022 I hope not. We lost all our plants and I was hauling water like an Oklahoma Sooner for days.
  21. I was definitely psycho man back in The Day piling snow up so it would last longer. My late dad was in TEARS, from me trying to clean Greenwood Drive WITH A SHOVEL then piling it way the hell up by the north side of the house. I was even trying to spread it on the north lawn then stomping it down tight then piling even MORE, while neighbors gaped, with their jaws on the ground. You only think you like the snow. I worshiped it! Don't forget the drifts. There is no finer time in life, then savoring stolen snow! You haven't lived, until you wait til 330am when every normie is fast asleep deep in the arms of Morpheus, then you kind of like just happen to be takin a shortcut right thru someone else's drift. Damn that felt fucking good! I would also roll around in the drift, getting the snow all over myself and thoroughly enjoying the sensation of being in a Arctic wonderland, maybe even getting lost in Greenland in a blizzard! I remember back when I was 23 in 1987, after the first 14 incher on Jan 22 1987, I went out late and I wallowed in every damn drift in Woodbridge! I was young and extremely crazy as hell and certifiably nuts about snow! I had the time of my life then! I was digging snow and rolling around in it and sliding around on ice patches screaming woooooo-hooooooo at the top of my lungs and dancing like Michael Jackson! You'da thought I just won 45 trillion dollars in the damn lottery. No, just happy about snow. I hope with everything in my snow loving heart, that the Mid Atlantic gets 2013-2014'd REAL GOOD this winter! You all are way overdue! The pattern looks kind of trying to go that direction!
  22. You will definitely see a lot more snow this winter.
  23. Man I REALLY hope that is the case. In which case I am extremely elated for the entire sub! Because, IT'S THE MID ATLANTIC!
