    Default Strange White Flakes

    There is some kind of white stuff falling from the sky here in the Fort Worth area. They are small and completely silent, and mysteriously disappear when they touch the ground. We saw something similar to this once, during Dec. / Jan., it was referred to by the meteorologists as "snow". But this is APRIL in Texas, it caint be snow. I better check Matthew 24, or the book of Revelation, see if I've missed something, this stuff HERE is just WRONG.

    It is going to be 15 degrees here in Kansas on Easter morning! The record low for the date was 24 degrees set back in the early 1900's! I guess instead of an Easter bonnet we need to wear Easter ear muffs!

    Calm down everyone!!!

    This happened here in Phoenix a long time ago. It started out just as you mentioned. Some even stayed on the ground for a little while, and those who moved here from colder areas made "snow-balls" out of them to throw at each other. There were several car crashes attributed to this stuff, but it all did eventually disappear. Eventually, everything returned to normal.
    I'll meet you at the Rainbow Bridge.

    I went to an Easter service at church tonight and thought I was actually going to a Christmas service. We had small snowflakes here in Indianapolis. It is cold!

    Just be happy it disappeared when it hit the ground. You don't want to know what it's like when that stuff sticks around...

    And you know it's bad when the temperatures on Christmas and Easter were the same.

    I think that it was warmer here at Christmas than it was yesterday. We had a couple inches on the ground yesterday, but it mostly seems to be gone today.

    This is my son's Spring Break! There were 7 inches of snow on the ground last night when we got home from my in-laws. Seems like the seasons have shifted a couple months.

    Al Gore might have to cancel his global warming speeches because he can't land his private jet due to the snow.

    So I did the Race for the Cure in Down Town Fort Worth Saturday and it was cold.. but once we got going, it was fine. As we were crossing the finish line, I felt drops on my face. Later as we were going to the car, it started snowing HARD!

    It snowed for a long while. We had a big EggFest at Church, and you know, it snowed the whole time!

    Why couldn't it do that on Christmas Eve instead of Easter Eve.

    Talking island snow

    We had been on vacation all week and were supposed to leave Ocracoke Island (the Outer Banks of NC) at 7AM on Saturday and did not get off until 6PM. The wind was blowing around 40-50 MPH and in the middle of the day, sure enough, flurries for about 20 minutes. Unbelievable, but pretty cool!
