Winter Weather 2025 - Arctic Blasts or Sweaty Ass?

Recommended Posts

I managed to get ahead of the game yesterday.  Drained all hoses, put my warm boxes on the faucets and covered plants in hopes of peace of mind that everything will be OK.  We still have Indian Paintbrush, Indian blankets, Lantana and other flowers that are still in bloom.  Not an overabundance but still makes the yard colorful. In fact, Bluebonnets and Sunflowers are trying to pop up.  I think our landscaping is confused on which season it is. Dreary and weary winter weather arrives today.  yuk. 

2 hours later......

This is the NBM (National Blend of Models) which apparently the NWS FW puts a lot of stock in. FWIW.

I saw some Indians gathering an asston of firewood all week.  Gotta think they know something about to change.

Good thing I decided to double check the faucet out at the wellhouse that I never use. Turns out I did use it in July to rinse the a/c and then never covered it back up because who tf covers a water faucet in July?

Checked the well, pipes, etc.. ready for the polar vortex but it seems like it's only going to be below freezing for a few hours in the morning throughout the week. Looking forward to a cold but comfortable week.

Shouldn’t be anything crazy this week. The further north you go the better your chance of seeing snow. Should just be regular cold in the Houston area this week. The end of January may get a little colder though.

I absolutely bought chili stuff this weekend 

Went with a coconut chicken stew instead. Thought about chili, but nah, needed something tropical to fend off this blizzard. Oh wait, not gonna rain.

So what is the reality of next week? Thursday/Friday timeframe? Going to be cold as Ohio for the game.

Cotton Bowl travel could be a shit show Thurs and early Friday.  

My plan all along had been to head up around noon Friday.

Hope the current forecast doesn’t push back a few hours.

 

It’s already probably going to push a lot of folks to join me on 35 at the same time
