Only in Texas...

I know many of ya'll are in the 30's and are seeing snow. But Im west of Fort Worth, and Tuesday it was 93 here. Woke up this morning to a sheet of snow and 29*. Only in Texas can the temp drop to a 1/3 the temp in just a couple days time.

It was in the 80's a couple days ago and now there's snow on the ground. Did the same thing just a few weeks ago.

A couple days? How about the same happening in a couple hours.

Delta, Utah had a 63* temperature differential within 12 hours last year! They went from a low of 28* in the morning hours to a high of 91* in the afternoon.

Your joking right? Have you heard of Rochester?

Better yet, my camp up in tug-hill this weekend went from mid 60's last week, to the teens this weekend. 3 foot of snow and still coming.

Everyone says "only in (insert your state) will we get this weather" I hear it here in Indiana all the time. This dramatic change happens almost everywhere.

Last tuesday here in Indiana it was in the high 70's, wednesday it was in the 20's
