*slow blinking*

It's...snowing.

Apocalypse?

From: [identity profile] seperis.livejournal.com Date: 2007-01-16 06:02 pm (UTC)
...I think so.

A snowball's chances in hell just got *exponentially* better.

There are--there are *flurries*.

WOW, I've seen snow only once this winter. It melted right away and since then... regular spring. :)

From: [identity profile] seperis.livejournal.com Date: 2007-01-16 06:03 pm (UTC)
Hee! It's--just it *does not snow* here.

This is like a momente I should write poetry about or something.

So, that's where all the snow went. xD

PS. Please, keep it ;)

In Austin???

Wow. I lived in TX for about 10 years (San Antonio, Houston), and I don't think it snowed once while I was there.

The big question, though, is: Does it look like the snow will *stick*?

From: [identity profile] seperis.livejournal.com Date: 2007-01-16 06:04 pm (UTC)
Not sure. *eyes window* It's just--so. There. I am trying to think of an equivalent event of this magnitude and cannot. We just all keep getting up to stare out the window with no idea why this is happening.

We just all keep getting up to stare out the window with no idea why this is happening.

I completely understand. I grew up mainly in Alabama, and during the rare times that it snowed there everyone couldn't help but stare out the windows or run out to play in the snow flurries. It was like Christmas. *g*

(Of course, there was always the inevitable run on the grocery stores to stock up bread and milk in case the snow actually stuck.)

I was in Israel one August and it rained. We all were eyeing the desks for good cover.

and you live in...Texas? (*checks outside to make sure it's not tropical weather in Michigan and we haven't all entered Bizarro Land*)

From: [identity profile] seperis.livejournal.com Date: 2007-01-16 06:04 pm (UTC)
I KNOW! NO IDEA WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!

In Russia, the Muscovites are all staring outside, wondering where in the hell the wet white stuff is.

From: [identity profile] bkwyrm.livejournal.com Date: 2007-01-16 06:02 pm (UTC)
And here in Chicago, it's not snowing. Maybe you're getting our weather?

From: [identity profile] seperis.livejournal.com Date: 2007-01-16 06:04 pm (UTC)
I am beginning to suspect so, yes.

From: [identity profile] logovo.livejournal.com Date: 2007-01-16 06:02 pm (UTC)
Huh. Well, good thing you're home. This call for some hot chocoale ;)

From: [identity profile] seperis.livejournal.com Date: 2007-01-16 06:05 pm (UTC)
It really does. *goes to look for some*

Welcome to your brave new world. *g*

*thinks fondly back to freshman year of college and the Texans and Californians going bananas at the first snow of the year* Take pictures. Of yourselves or the snow.

*thinks less fondly of watching the fallout scene from The Day After* Call the local nuclear power plant. Cuz you're in Texas, yo.

From: [identity profile] pentapus.livejournal.com Date: 2007-01-16 06:15 pm (UTC)
Hilariously, the only snow I've seen this winter is Texas. When it first started it took me a while to figure it out, it was so light, and then I thought, "Hmm, nothing to write home about," before waking my roommate, who immediately called both her mother and her sister to gloat about it.

From: [identity profile] bathsweaver.livejournal.com Date: 2007-01-16 06:17 pm (UTC)
Yeah, we were in t-shirts in Nashville this Saturday (unheard of), and suddenly are having a few, brave, flurries (equally unheard of) today.

Dunno what's up. I keep remembering that Calvin and Hobbes cartoon where Calvin's gloating over the power a watering can gives him over a potted plant.

Mother Nature's messing with our heads.

It's snowing here, too, in PA, but was warmer than las vegas for the last 3 days, it was in the 50s. And now it's going to ruin our fun and get down into the single digits tonight. *cries*

From: [identity profile] fox1013.livejournal.com Date: 2007-01-16 06:28 pm (UTC)
And here I thought moving to Boston would get me snow.

But no, apparently I needed to go to TEXAS.


God, I suck at planning.

From: [identity profile] moxie-brown.livejournal.com Date: 2007-01-16 06:29 pm (UTC)
Woohoo, and I think it was last year (or the year before) that it was snowing in Houston! I hope it sticks and we get an inch or two.

...But now KXAN's round-the-clock TV coverage is saying that it's turning back to sleet. :(

I am sooo jealous. It is currently about 55 degrees outside - I think North Carolina has completely skipped the winter season.

From: [identity profile] adannu.livejournal.com Date: 2007-01-16 07:02 pm (UTC)
Hee -- we've got about an inch here at sea level and more on the eastside. And I'm looking out the window right now and seeing more flurries.

We are also slated for a) a Sonics game and b) all that snow freezing into ice tonight.

After this season, I suspect locals here are going to eye the local sports team suspiciously. "A weeknight game? Damn. I guess I better go home to make sure it doesn't rain/snow/wind." The Hawks got all three, and now the Sonics are taking over that with snow both nights so far.

We just have sleet right now, but it's sticking to stuff.

From: [identity profile] madmaxmaddison.livejournal.com Date: 2007-01-16 07:51 pm (UTC)
Spent Christmas in upstate New York, nothing. Back in Texas, sleety ice pellets. Anybody checked the weather down on the Rio Grande? If California's lost 80% of the citrus crop, Texas grapefruit may suddenly get a lot more popular.

!! We totally stole your weather. Or at least parts of it.

Girl, it hasn't even snowed in DC yet this winter. That is all kinds of wrong.

From: [identity profile] ceteramisto.livejournal.com Date: 2007-01-17 06:36 am (UTC)
Here in Connecticut, all we've had is about two or three small bits of snow that doesn't even stick. There was even one night where it was in the high fifties. I think Mother Nature is trying to mess with our heads.

From: [identity profile] neery.livejournal.com Date: 2007-01-17 10:06 am (UTC)
The wheather is just so bizarre this year. January in Munich, we're supposed to be up to our thighs in snow, and it should be absolutely freezing.

I spent two hours sitting in the sun in a t-shirt yesterday. WTF.
