MikeStorms Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 The hot hand helps melt the snow, hes got a point. I bet he shovels the snow right into a rim that looks like a manhole. It isn’t so much that he was wrong, but the arrogance in the way he phrased that others were. I’ve been lurking here for a solid 8 years and have learned a ton by reading. With that being said, I identify those who know what they talking about and scroll over those who don’t. I apologize for my post last night in the discussion thread but after watching that nonsense year after year I could not help myself. Enjoy the snow everyone!.

coastalplainsnowman Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Before this gets going, just want to say that "Crusha or Brusha" was one of the all-time best titles in this subforum. On a more serious note, do we need to be concerned about moon angle with this storm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's another eclipse. On that topic I was reading today that a doctor reported a patient coming in who has a permanent crescent-shaped image burned into their eye because they looked at the eclipse unprotected. This person said that they thought they were okay because they used SPF lotion and rubbed it into their eyes and thought that would protect them from the sun's dangerous radiation. Um......guess that was a really bad plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has to be Texas' biggest snow since the Christmas 2004 snowfall which was truly historic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm1220 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 2 weeks after I moved to Austin in Jan 2015, there was a light coating of ice on cold surfaces and some trees. Basically a heavy frost. My boss called my team urgently and told us not to attempt travel on roads. Any amount of ice or snow down there essentially shuts things down. I never saw snow in Austin. I couldn’t imagine South Padre Island with thundersnow and paste on the palm trees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hudsonvalley21 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Cloudy 29/23. Feels like snow here in the snow hole. I think rob will see the most snow, and that's from the snowguns on the golf course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormlover74 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Delayed start of snow is never a good sign Also why is anything before December 15th a bonus? This could be our biggest snow of the month and winter for all we know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Record heat to record cold and snow in a few days is about as extreme as it gets for South Texas. http://w2.weather.gov/climate/index.php?wfo=bro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
