Apparently, the idiots in Louisiana did not get the message about staying off the roads because I just got this text sent to me

Hopefully something is open today in South Austin.

Should be able to grab something from the HEB.

I'd triple check that they're open though - you never know with those sons a bitches.

I-10 and 610 interstates are closed as are all of the elevated bridges over water.    As the rain turned to sleet before the snow came, we have a pretty good layer of ice beneath the snow that is deceiving if you decide to take a spin to look at the pretty weather.    Since we do not have a fleet of salt trucks, it will be an interesting question how long before anyone can drive, because tomorrow is supposed to be colder than today.

All this man can do is be glad he made sure he has everything he needs to make a pot of red.

Tonight is supposed to be colder, but it should be sunny and above freezing before noon in most of Houston and south of it. Highs in the 40s and sunny. Most roads should be good by around noon

About a quarter mile of visibility. Interstate 10 was invisible 94ab6eeaf5eda3c7426b16d9eb2ba119.jpgb59960090c3b74a21e8a382593ddae7b.jpg

Yeah that's actually a thing right now here in Jefferson and Chambers county. Lots of videos going around.

The forecast was very accurate, we got about this many inches

How often would you say it's gotten down to -35F up where you live?

It hit -30* a couple weeks ago, but it's rare to get this cold.  I'll bet it was -40* or colder as this was taken at 8 am.  The coldest part of the day is right around 5 or 6 am.

It's all the way up to 0* now that the sun is out.

Stop heating your house and leaving cabinets open in bathrooms to warm up the pipes. See, if you do then your pipes don't burst and drown them.

got a few sled runs in on a inflatable raft, saw everything from skis and snowboards to Costco bin lids and a queen size blow up mattress all doing double duty as Houston snow sleds.

I’ve been in a four week war with two squirrels. They keep eating the branches off one of my trees. So I’ve tried various techniques to try and scare them off, with no luck. I’ve resorted to just throwing tennis balls at them. Two days ago I walked up to within 6 feet of one camped out on a limb eating, and I whizzed the ball within an inch of his head. He just looked at me and went back to eating. I despise these animals. 

Slingshot and acorns.  Have some fun.

This is the least surprising development from this weather event. LA drivers can’t drive when it’s sunny and dry.

Let's be clear - I did not go outside to take that picture.  Took it through the kitchen window. Heat in the house couldn't keep up last night, though.  We keep it at 68 inside and it was 63 when I got up.  Had to light a fire to warm it up.

Fraser, CO.  In the mountains near Winter Park.

RR and Austin ISD normal start tomorrow.  Off to check Facebook and see how the sane ones are taking it. 

Y'all's girl Lina is on the news telling people not to light fires in their fireplace with the damper closed

So Houston airports open at 10am for arrivals, 11am for departures.

Need to paint lines on the snow

 

snowing in florida right now so there's almost certainly snow on all 50 states. that's really rare.

Spent this afternoon whipping a pot of beef stew and some chocolate chip cookies.  Stew was delish.  Cookies for later with cold milk.

Some dumbass in Port Arthur bundled up his 6 month old and used him to “shovel” snow off his car - with the license plate visible, in a TikTok video.

Honestly, if it was a 2-year-old or older toddler it would have almost been cute. Questionable, but no big deal.

But guess whose wife happens to be the on-call manager, and guess who is going to have a CPS investigator at his house as soon as the streets clear?

For F'n real?  

Yup. Too many people called it in.

LEO just got dispatched, and since he has a rapsheet he's gonna catch some charges.

(update: a 3 month old)

Believable. And of course he put it on TikTok
