Please pray for snow!!!
 
There is an actual chance that Southeast Texas may have a white Christmas! With the Arctic front moving south this week, the weather folks are predicting "snow showers" for the Houston area on Friday into Saturday.

I've NEVER had a white Christmas, even when I lived in east Tennessee when I was young. I'd really like to see one. So, if you have a spare moment, please pray, do a snow dance, stick a pin in a weather voodoo doll -- however you can help.

Even if it's an inch of snow -- that's enough to pump up the ole innertubes and sled down our local seawall!!! (Besides, it's hilarious around here when we get even mildly icy conditions. People down here don't even know what snow tires are. Plus, we desperately need a good freeze to kill off the mOtHeRf*CkInG mosquitoes.)

LET IT SNOW! LET IT SNOW! LET IT SNOW!!!!! :thumbsup:

Which color shawl do you wear for this one? *twirl*

You can keep the snow in Texas, too. I don't want it here in Rhode Island. :laugh:

Dontcha just love Texas weather? Nearly 80 today, I turned on the AC at work when I came back from lunch. It won't get out of the 40's tomorrow and we may have snow flurries on Christmas! :p

Geez, we're expecting 6-10" tomorrow. I wish I could give it to ya! :nod: :nod:

They've had us for a wintry mix on Christmas Eve for a week now. It was so warm today I could have washed the dog in my swimsuit. I'd love to have my first white Christmas, but I'm worried that it might turn into an ice storm. Perfect time to have one, I guess, but we're anything but prepared for one...

I know what you mean. (Partly because I'm pretty much right by ya!) I was walking around outside today thinking, Why am I not wearing a tank top and shorts? And it's the 21st of December! It's crazy.

Eeee!!!
 
It's crazy that us Southerners are excited about snow, but we are! :blob1: They are saying flurries tomorrow and Thursday. Looks to be sunny, but very cold on Christmas though in North Texas. :( Bah, humbug!! LOL

I'll never forget the Valentines Day "snowstorm" of 2003. :laugh: It was amazing!!

I say bring on the snow! We're expecting that same front to hit us tonight, early tomorrow morning, and we're expecting up to 6 inches.

Sorry, HomerMcVie! I'm doing the snow dance for Texas and Indiana!

I'll pray for snow in TX, if you pray for no snow (or ice) in WV. :thumbsup:

The snow's okay...I just find it more depressing when it's all nasty outside. At least I drive 4WD. Today was GREAT! 47 and sunny!!! That's my kind of winter weather. :thumbsup:
