It hardly ever snows in Texas, but if it does.....even a small dusting will get your games cancelled !

I was in Texas in the mid-80s and it snowed heavily in Dallas on New Year's Day. The city shut down and no one could drive and it was mild to Midwestern standards. All the snow was gone the next morning. Funniest thing I ever saw.

Peace

It snowed in the mid-80's? How did it ever reach the ground?

23 mile drive tonight took an hour each way. Miserable conditions. We got our game in anyway.

Now 2 tomorrow.

This is especially true the further south in Texas you go. Schools get shut down at the threat of ice on the roads.

Ironically, the one time I've had a game in jeopardy due to potential ice, games weren't cancelled for one particular school district, as opposed to the biggest district in the city (in Austin). Actually ended up sleeting right after the game were finished.

Heh, here if the weatherman says "snow", there is a run on the stores for supplies, panic sets in and schools and the government start shutting things down. Last year school was canceled for a day for snow and it didn't even end up snowing!
