Winter in Texas

Here in the northern hemisphere, in the wierdest little state in the world, we are having a snow day off school, and another tomorrow, after a 70 F day about 3 days ago. It's COLD, but at least there is a little rhyme and reason now that snow has come with it. I can't stand cold without snow. But it's interesting how it varies in other places too: Some friends of mine in Australia told me how icky-sticky HOT it is today, while another in Canada says she only gets snow days if the drifts get over 3 feet. I wouldn't mind trading with the Australians, but the Canadian policy makes me feel like one from a rather alarmist state. XD
