Tomorrow Dallas suppose to have a winter storm. We are going to have freezing rain, sleet, and snow. For the whole week we are going to be below freezing. The lowest temp is going to be 9 degrees. The wind chill is going to be 0 or below. The highest temp is going to be 22 degrees. I wish it was summer!

Ha, you Dallasities (and Bostonians) enjoy your cold weather! While I enjoy a nice climate.

Sorry I'm not much of a weather person, but more of one of those "in your face, bragging" type people for kicks.

This week it will snow in Texas, but you know where it wont be snowing? Austin, Houston, & San Antonio. Dallas & Fort Worth are still unpredictable at the moment.

Plus, its hell lot warmer here than Dallas, I can go out wearing basketball shorts and a light sweater and its all good. I remember the week before Christmas here in Austin, me and a few friends went out to eat, and the restaurant was playing Christmas songs, and I was wearing shorts, and the weather was like 78-82 degrees. It was a weird concept, but that's a winter for you!

It's not really something to brag about.
