Houston will have an ice storm early Monday morning. We'll have about 12 hours of ice, and temperatures below freezing, then it will melt.
People are panic buying at the stores. Businesses will close 2 days in advance.
It's scary... almost like a mini mini ice-age.
In the past, cultures would sacrifice a virgin to a volcano to assuage the climate gods.
Is Greta Thunberg doing anything on Saturday?
Lol. I grew up there...in the burbs in Bedford....and yes! Cardboard boxes were the way to go if we actually I iced! God i miss home. Glad your hubby got to stat home. My bro would have been on that route but he stayed home as well. The roads there are so scary and not ready one bit for ice.
Yup. Plus people here don't know how to drive on ice. My husband is a yankee, so he learned to drive on a hilly road in a 15 passenger van in icy conditions lol But down here none of us get to practice, so people drive 70mph on icy roads. So even though HE knows how to drive in it, I don't want him out with all the morons that have no idea. We did finally get brine trucks instead of sand trucks in some areas. I'll never forget the disaster the sand made on the roads during the Icepocalypse of 2013.
Hahaha and that reminds me. I grew up in a small town south of Dallas and my mom was driving once and saw our town's version of a sand truck. 2 guys in the back of a pickup truck filled with sand shoveling it on overpasses lol
