It is still 80 degrees here in Lubbock.

[texas1928]

Man was it warm today.

Wish we would of had some storms but it was jsut to warm aloft to let thunderstorms get started. :(

So that means tomorrow we will have a dirt storm. OH BOY brown skys. And if you need minerals in your diet just step outside and open your mouth. YUM!!!!!

1. Tomorrow we have a chance of tornadoes again.

Tuesday morning we had frost. By that afternoon it was 78 degrees.

MO in the springtime sucks!

[texas1928]

2. That is spring for you.

But you could be in Texas where we go from winter, with maybe a few weeks of spring and then BAM IT IS SUMMER TIME!!!

[xmas74]

3. Missouri goes back and forth.

One week it will be 80+, the next it will be snowing.

And summer is absolutely awful.

[nutsnberries]

4. spring

we went for a week of serious spring weather around here... 50s, 60s, 70 even!
Then, yesterday it snowed. It didn't accumulate. I like snow but once it feels like spring, I want spring, not a switchback to winter. Today is kind of cool but partly sunny and springy again. :) Makes me just want to





TAG someone and say, You're It! (oh, i did)

[texas1928]

9. We need to start a water balloon fight.

WOOO HOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

[nutsnberries]

26. no, no, nooooooooo

maybe in July, but not now unless we can all come down to (warm) Texas - it's a big state, right?

i have a catapult perfect for water balloons. watch out. i'll be using it!

[texas1928]

27. ELOL

Come on down everybody, and we will have a HUGH fight.

[fleabert]

5. dirt devils! dirt storms suck. one of my strong memories from Lubbock-

and I moved when I was 5.

such extremes there, snow in the winter and 100's in the summer- no fall and no spring. :-(

[texas1928]

10. Well we have spring.

Usually in February and the first of March, but winter shows up then too.

[Radio_Guy]

6. 80s here as well

Global warming is going to make for 80 + in January before long.

[texas1928]

11. We have 80s in January already.

We can have 80s one week and below zero the next.

[Bridget Burke]

7. And even when the weather changes....

You'll STILL be in Lubbock!

(Sorry--I live in Houston--not exactly the beauty spot of the universe.)

[texas1928]

12. I don't mind it.

The traffic is a lot better here.

:P

[Bridget Burke]

17. Lubbock has certainly given Texas some fine musicians....

Is it something in the water? Do you even have water out there?

[bmbmd]

18. Nobody believes me when I say this-

But I miss Lubbock. Great weather, beautiful night skies, great art and entertainment, the Depot, The Buddy Holly Museum, Stubbs, Tech football, Roscoe Wilson, Lubbock High, Cagle's (the steakhouse, not the carpet store) Abner Euresti, Sharon Maines, Lubbock Country Club, great bird hunting, fishing at Lake Alan Henry (which supplanted Lake fork as the lake with the most thirteen pounders taken last year) David Langford, Llano Estacado Emmaus Community, County Line Barbecue, and warm hardworking loving people. They tend to be a little right-wingish, (okay, a lot right-wingish) but still the best people I've ever known. You made me homesick.

[texas1928]

21. Well, it is ok.

County Line closed, I do get tired of the conservative bull on tv and in the public. The weather can be nice, but today is one of those trying days. And you can keep Tech football... GIG'EM AGGIES!!!!!!

[Lethe]

20. they got water now, but not in 30 years

it is been projected that underground water will be completely dried up in 30 years in west texas because of farming and ranching practices.

[Lethe]

8. i remember those dirt storms in lubbock

when the sky looks like chocolate milk......

once i was driving home from fishing one day, and it started raining mud. Had to pull the car over on the side of the dirt road and just sit there and enjoy darkness at 2pm.

[texas1928]

15. We usually have at least one Mud storm a year.

The worst part is when the wind blows bad enough it starts blowing rocks.

[leftofthedial]

13. you know why the wind blows west to east in Clovis?

'Cause Lubbock sucks.

couldn't resist.

[texas1928]

14. No

New Mexico Blows. So that is why.


:P

[leftofthedial]

16. especially clovis!

I think we can all agree on that.

[ceile]

19. One of the smelliest places on earth!

Every year I drive through on my way to CO. Man! Powerful stuff!

[Common Sense Party]

22. We got two inches of snow this morning.

I just got done shoveling. Spring, my butt.

[texas1928]

23. Well in the Western Mountain states you can expect that.

Hell we could still get snow here. It has snowed here before on Memorial Day weekend.

[TheCentepedeShoes]

24. We've had gusts up to around 65

today in Amarillo, blowing steady at 40 at times. Plus some serious fire shit still going on at the north end of town. I have alot of old HS buds that live up there. Highway closed btw town and the river due to the fires. Heard there was a big dirt storm on I-27 around Tulia. Then the weather guy says we're going to have a light freeze Sat AM. Ah...the panhandle plains.

[texas1928]

25. We are steady at 35 to 40.

Gusts over 65, and the dirt is blowing. But hey one of my co-workers had a dollar blow up to her earlier. So hey someone made some money. In my work we have been busy today.

[TheCentepedeShoes]

28. Been through some of the Lubbock

big ones: the big dirt storm of early '67 that bent the poles at Jones and the tornado in '70. Former just got me dirty, latter busted out windows in my dorm.
