No food...
Here's my dilemma
I just got back to school so I haven't had a chance to run to the store to get some munchies, there's about 1/4 inch of ice covering everything so roads are closed and I don't know if HEB or any food places are open...and I'm STARVING!!! I'm about to go in search of food...but that means I gotta go out into the sleet and ice...and I don't like cold...Feels like I've gone back to the hunter-gatherer days they keep telling us about in school... I want Thursday to hurry up and get here!! It's supposed to be above freezing then...

why don't you order pizza or something and have it delivered to you so you don't have to get out in the weather?

It's 30 here and freezing!! I'm up around Austin. I'm probably gonna go out in a bit to see if anyone's at the student center, if not I'll just walk around and take pictures, I hear this doesn't happen too often here

It has only snowed in Alabama once in my lifetime. It was 30's all day today and FREEZING but nope, no snow. Even when it does snow here, it's that nasty, dirty, icy, wet snow. No nice fluffy white stuff. WAH!

Well, I finally got home from Tampa, FL a few minutes ago, and it's 32 F and sleeting here now. Had a 3 hour drive because of the rain, and traffic in Houston was horrible. Glad I made it home before conditions got any worse. We're farther south than Lissa and close to the coast so it's warmer here. I heard on the radio that the reason the roads get so bad down here is that with the temperatures over 100 in the summer, the oils in the asphalt come to the top and make the surface smoother and slicker than farther north. When it rains the road gets slicker than when there is more small gravel near the surface. When that rain freezes, watch out. It gets really slick, quickly with even a very thin film of ice. The highway department has already sanded the bridges on the major highways around here, but it's really messy out right now.
Tampa was gorgeous when I left, mid 70's, blue skies with big fluffy white clouds. Got off the plane and into this!!!
