Who's Right?
I caught this article on Yahoo!, which talks about the Farmer's Almanac predicting a much colder winter this year which is at odds with what is being said by the global warming Kool-Aid drinkers (The National Weather Service) . Now I'm betting that the Farmer's Almanac is right, because the Kool-Aid drinkers have been wrong for that last 3 hurricane seasons and the Almanac is right about 80-85% of the time.

"....attributes its forecasts to reclusive prognosticator Caleb Weatherbee, who uses a secret formula based on sunspots, the position of the planets and the tidal action of the moon."
Hey! He stole that from me!!
Only time will tell, my friend. I'm hopin this recluse is NOT on target. Wanna make a friendly wager? I'm KIDDING! back off....
;)
La Nina will make our winter cooler and wetter down here. Fraid yall won't have the winter you had up north last year.
Fight Farmers fight!
Don't start makin excuses for not comin up here, Havic. We'll have snow...and we'll leave it ALL for you to shovel. I think you should spend your 45th bday in the snow, for a change...
Acrually, it snowed the day I was born; in H-town no less. And it was a real snow (to us atleast) an inch anda half.
Oh, well if it snowed the day you were born, forget it. I was thinkin you and yours weren't used to snow...but clearly you are. ;)
I curious who picked 'Kool-Aid Drinkers' as the answer in my poll.
I'll be out of the 'net for awhile. We're going to NY in the morning and I work tonight. I figure I'll be flying on about three hours sleep since security at the Austin airport is a nightmare in the morning.
Have a safe/fun trip. Get ya some real za.
Wasn't me.
That was me! I like goin against the grain and you've left me little options lately. Plus, it's less about "why" but more about "if"...if ya know what I mean.
Wow...NY...I'm jealous. Have a great time!

What year was that, like '74?
1964.
Oh, that was the first time I witnessed snow in Houston. I recall I was in elementary school and we looked out of the window and it was snowing. I recall nothing sticking to the ground where I was at, though. In '74 I recall about an inch accumulation where I was at (our average basicly is 1 snowfall (of anykind) every 10 years.)
I remember a goog snow fall in '72 (didn't live in H in '74 as I had moved in w/ my grandma in small town USA for a couple a years), I was in 3rd grade. My dad came into my room and said it had snowed durin the night and I didn't believe him. We had a good inch plus on the west side a town. I got to stay home from school and I recall my mother and I pickin him up from work later that day and havin a snowball fight in front a his office buildin.
That's a nice memory...
I remember a good snowfall back in...March I think it was. Good times, good times...
It very well could've been '72 (rather than '74), and in fact it probabaly was.
BTW: Did you ever check out the weather website based in Beaumont that I sent you the link to?
Please send the link again.
Might been both years.
