Snowmageddon continues!



Today's headline in balmy Fort Worth, Texas:
Snow Begins to Fall, Schools Begin to Close
Only two inches of snow needed to break record!

Snowflakes began falling in Parker County around 5 a.m. By 6 a.m., those flakes grew much larger and the winds stronger as the upper level high continued its push into North Texas. http://www.nbcdfw.com/weather/stories/More-Snow-Expected-Tonight-84994822.html

This video from NBC 5 in Dallas was broadcast two nights ago:


....and in other parts of the world:
Russian capital Moscow covered by record 63cm snowfall!
Thousands of snow-clearing machines have been working to dig the Russian capital Moscow out of a record-breaking fall of 63cm (nearly 25 inches). After a weekend of heavy snow showers, the regional weather centre announced that the previous record of 62cm, set in 1966, had been broken.

....and in case you haven't heard:
Climategate Meets the Law: Senator Inhofe To Ask for DOJ Investigation!
Senator James Inhofe (R-OK) today asked the Obama administration to investigate what he called “the greatest scientific scandal of our generation” — the actions of climate scientists revealed by the Climategate Files, and the subsequent admissions by the editors of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fourth Assessment Report (AR4).
Senator Inhofe also called for former Vice President Al Gore to be called back to the Senate to testify. “In [Gore's] science fiction movie, every assertion has been rebutted,” Inhofe said. He believes Vice President Gore should defend himself and his movie before Congress.
