DFW got down to 30 degrees so I guess this one counts.

My expected low was 36F and ended up at 39. Cloud cover probably kept it from falling.

Like I said in the other post I fully expect at some point there will be a southeast ridge. It never fails over there. I have friends over there who can't even talk about 2021 because it was so horrible to watch and then got missed to the south in January. They still haven't beaten us since

Now the question is when is that :lol:

Made it down to 29F this morning in Longview. There was black ice in a few areas (especially bridges) from residual moisture from yesterday's rain and some overnight mist. That led to a few accidents and even a brief road closure in town.

I'm just glad we're getting some cold weather to fight off the mosquitos. We've been getting good moisture.

Starting to see some signals for some Artic air shifting further west (more our way) in about another two weeks or so.

I just saw something with a light and a faint Cloud around it and then look like it somewhat exploded with like an outgassing on the western Horizon about 60° up.

Not sure what it was, anybody know anything?

It happened about 15 minutes ago.

That sounds like a SpaceX launch. Did it look something like this?

No it was nowhere near that size, but it was noticeable, of course angle matters I guess. It looked like an airplane head light, then it had a cloud around it, then a cone smoke trail and it was gone.


Had I not been driving I would have filmed it.

It was so interesting.
