Overton Hotel in Lubbock, Looking West
Thanx to the internets! There is a Christmas Blizzard brewing right now pretty much over Lubbock, Texas’ head. The storm started as rain in California, but brought snow to some areas south of Tucson. The storm sank further southward than originally expected and the forecast for Lubbock changed from rain and some snow to some rain and more snow! Right now the Hub City is covered with about 6″ and it’s coming down sideways. The 7am observation at LBB is: “Snow, Freezing Fog, Blowing Snow and Windy, 26.” I’m jealous, especially since I should have been there had I had a few extra $$s. Thankfully, there is the internets.
This gathering storm is now plowing east. The kids and grandkids north of Dallas are under a Winter Storm Warning and they could see rain changing to snow by this afternoon and maybe an inch or three just in time for Christmas!
Add this snow to what is already on the ground and a large chuck of the U.S. is fixin’ ta have a White Christmas. If you aren’t, then just surf some web cams, put on some Bing Crosby and dare to dream!
Snow Cover early AM the 24th.
