Thundersleet? I never heard that before. Ive had thudersnow in Pearland since I;ve been here, hail, seen tornadoes from the back porch a little ways away, hurricanes, smoke from Mexico and saltgrass clearing on the coast, 5 month droughts being broken by 4 inches of rain in 30 minutes followed by another 6 over 24 hours, 3 inches of snow on Christmas Day, 110+ degree heat while mowing grass in a long sleeved shirt in July so I could keep the sun off my arms (yeah that was a little warm), iced over roads where cars were spinning and sliding willy-nilly and dudes with big trucks just cruising along carefully in 4wd mode, interstates flooding and making small lakes that people were kayaking on to help rescue folks from being stuck on roofs of 18-wheelers, periods where we got over 22 inches of rain in a 48-hour period, and now three days of low temps in the very low 20s and highs in the low 30s ON THE COAST, BUT I HAVE NEVER SEEN OR HEARD OF THUNDERSLEET BEFORE!!!!If you havent already, start buying lots of ammo, fishing line, fishing baits, fuel storage cans and a fuel depot bunker, big cailber guns, camo gear, and above all, a BassCat, cuz the next ice age is a-comin! Tell the dog! Dont tell the cat, and let it go roam outside when that next big snowstorm is about to hit, and get ready to tell Al Gore that he was right, the climate is changing! Just not in the regulatory-tax supportive direction he wants us to think it is.Fact of note, its snowed enough here to make an accumulation the last two winters in a row, with a third an almost sure probability according to the weather guru on the tv tonight. He just didnt know how much PAST 1-3 inches of snow we were going to get. With that uch sow, Houston pretty much shuts down and kids have a field day! Woo-hoo! Bbbrbrbrrrrrrr!!! Yall folks up North get snow all the time, so your used to it. Yall need to check how MUCH snow is normal vs. what yall are getting this year so far.Thinking ahead, the Missouri, Arkansas, Canadian, and Mississippi river drainage areas with low-lying homes better start stockpiling sandbags. I bet those areas are in for more record-like flooding come spring when all that snow starts melting.Now a lot of that is tongue in cheek, but the bit about the flooding in spring Im basing on past news after record winter snowfalls in the mid-West and Rocky Mountain areas.Your Signature …
