Speaking of rivers. All those iced up rivers in the Midwest feeding the Big River are result in some crazy flooding when it warms up.

[BmillsSkier]

Too right, TR.

When this crazy cold snap breaks everyone from Pittsburgh to Missouri is going to be treated to some complimentary flooding to go with their busted pipes and damaged electric grid.

Have to assume the same on the west side of the river.

-31 was last week, I didnt have any problems but GF's laundry room froze & the powersteering in her passat quits working at about -30

and they shut the ski hill down

[BmillsSkier]

What do you do when it's been freezing cold, grey and snowing for seemingly forever?

Well, if you find yourself stuck at Kent State apparently you use the internets to get a few hundred people together for a snowball fight.

Where's BigSteve, I believe he's an alum.

Family in Tyler sound pretty grim this morning. Dipped down to 3 degrees. They do have a fireplace so were able to keep the house around 50 but they are def. stressed.

New records:
-- Oklahoma City: -14 degrees Fahrenheit, coldest since 1899, second-coldest temperature ever. (Oklahoma didn't even become a state until 1907.)
-- Dallas: -2 degrees Fahrenheit, coldest since 1930, second-coldest temperature ever.
-- Houston: 13 degrees Fahrenheit, coldest since 1989.
-- San Antonio, Texas: 12 degrees Fahrenheit, coldest since 1989.
-- Little Rock, Arkansas: -1 degrees Fahrenheit, coldest since 1989.
-- Fayetteville, Arkansas: -20 degrees Fahrenheit, all-time coldest temperature.
-- Hastings, Nebraska: -30 degrees Fahrenheit, all-time coldest temperature.


Here in W2 we are finally above freezing with 2ft of snow on the ground. Donkey's are up to their knees in the stuff. So exhausting to do farm chores in this stuff. Hoping for a sssssssssllllllllllllllllllllllooooooooooooooooooo ooowwwwwwwwwww melt.

49 degrees in my house in Houston this am, day 2 of no power to 60% of Houston. so, apparently Houston cannot handle hurricanes or a 48 hour cold snap. at this point i'm wondering if Houston can handle any extreme weather event.

[BmillsSkier]

Well, they sure as shit can't handle having a professional football team either. Look how fast that shit is melting.

[Timberridge]

The no heat thing could make for some eye poking displays at the gentleman's clubs down there.

They seem to deal with hot and humid as shit for months on end pretty well.

My son lived there for the summer of '18, he said it seems to rain up and down at the same time. Like water's just rising up out of the earth.

[BmillsSkier]

Well, that didn't take long.

Snow on popular Galveston, TX beach, suspected Mag shreds it. In a race bib. Finds exposed rock. Of course.



Tough name for the guy.

La Rog used to ski on the beach.

[dannynoonan]

Did he just huck to flat off that retaining wall, in jeans? Damn TX got steez

Tailgunning no doubt.

And nearly straight into a rock. It all checks out.

Meanwhile, in northern Vermont...

Our predicted 8-12 inch snow storm turned to freezing rain after 3.5 inches and now it is warm and shitty, ruining our soft snowpack. For the first time this winter, I barely broke 12" at my stake this morning and it has already settled back down to 11".
Screw you Texas for stealing our cold air.

[BmillsSkier]

Can we get Danno or Splat to fix the thread title?

I'd be a lot cooler if it wasn't a jumbled mess.

[Timberridge]

I thought Splat was retired from moderating and just posting stuff from his Facebook feed in the NSFW thread these days?

Also before we just accept that a witches tit is truly cold, can we first confirm this in the Tammy Wynette thread?

[BmillsSkier]

Do we have any Salem, MA mags here that can comment?

Did Londonderry have any witches, that you knew of?

Duh. The local ski hill was called Magic Mountain and they have trail names like Sorcerer, Witch and stuff. There were also a few black cats in town and they stocked brooms at the Clarks IGA.

Hey, look at it this way. It took a whole month for the January thaw to arrive late.

That is some serious wizardry shit. No wonder the Branch Covidians didn't jive well up there, too much crazy packed into a small area.
