Snowing
Yes, snowing. In central Texas, in April.
This is so freaky! It is coming down fast and in huge flakes. What's more is that it's sticking. It doesn't just melt when it touches the ground.
The Weather Channel says that this is the first April snow in Dallas... ever. Yesterday, the local forecast for here in the Waco area called for a chance of rain and mid 50's today. This morning they changed it to chance of snow and mid 30's. At 2:00 PM today they changed it again to say low 30's and a low of 29 tonight and 1-3 inches of snow.
They don't measure snow in inches in Texas. It's just "a light dusting" or "snow flurries". Today they are calling for 1-3 inches.
Ironically, I recently watched An Inconvenient Truth which is a documentary about global warming. Strange weather (even cold weather) is a warning sign of global warming. Think The Day After Tomorrow without Dennis Quaid saving anybody. The documentary was so interesting to me that I got some books on the subject. This kind of weird weather is exactly what scientist have been predicting for years. But anyway...
It's snowing! How freaky is that?
