Next time there's ice in Austin, go to that hill just East of the Capitol on the same street that runs right in front of it (don't remember the name) and video cars sliding down that (there won't be cars coming up because they can't even make it in the rain, let alone ice!).
I remember that day. If the roads ever get like that in austin, stay off the roads. The people here habe no idea how to drive in this muck. It's really dangerous!
i enjoyed every second of this film :] thank you and i remembered that day it was horrible the day before i had to walk home from school with only a little sweater and my friend and we hitchhiked because we missed the bus that was a day before the actual freezing.
Maybe a "bit" intense, but since I am from Montreal, to me, that's nothing compared to the Ice Storm of January 98. The ice reached 5 inches thickness everywhere. Trust me: the ice didn't just easily get knocked like that of cars... It took easily up to 1 hour to deice the car enough to simply move it somewhere close. If you were brave (and stupid) enough to need to DRIVE the car any good distance, it probably would take 2 hours to de-ice the car.
Wow, there was actually another person in Austin that knocked the ice off their car! I did that, drove to work when the roads were melting and nearly got hit by a huge sheet of ice off the top of an SUV and plenty more falling off cars everywhere. Idiots. I grew up here and at least have enough common sense to know all that ice could damage other vehicles as it comes off.
No shit I know I live in Austin too. I was just saying that if you hit it hard enough it could break the window. ^_^ And it's called commonsense you can live any where in the world and you should know not to hit the damn window that hard.
That was nothin'. It took us hours to get our car out, with our neihboor's help. It is nuts living in Austin with the drastic weather changes but I've lived here my whole life and I would be bored with a dull climate.
Another great thing about Austin is that me and my friends get to go swiming in barton springs.
i totally remember that!!! me and my friend jumped on her trampoline and it had ice allll on top of it. her neighbors left the sprinklers on so in the morning there whole front yard was COVERED in ice!! :D good times
we had a ice storm 2 weeks ago here in illinois and the storm left almost 1 million people without power; some for a week and 2 inches of ice and a foot of snow in kansas. galesburg il got a inch of ice and about 3 inches of snow. it was bad!!!
I was in Chicago at the time, where it was in the high 30's, laughing at my friends at home, because I was warmer than they were. Course, when it was snowing in April ...
I was in San Antonio during this. I had to drive to the store for food, and I ended up scratching up one of my doors trying to break the ice off with a rock. Turns out I just forgot to unlock it! :(
See people don't seem to understand that any kind of ice or snow is rare. Until December, rolls by we are used to very high degree weather and the last time we had a snow day it was like 3 or 4 years ago. Well from what I remember.
That kind of stuff only happens every hundred years usually. But this was surreal!! We didn't have to go to school for three and a half days!! We had a kind of ice rink thing on this bridge right by my house!! It was the most fun I have ever had!!
Man yall know we aren't used that ice and shit. We're used to that 100 degree weather. We can't deal with that ice. I remember the whole city shut down those couple of days. Glad that shit only happens every now and then.
kept the gt stang in my garage!!!no Ice on my car but you better believe people pitched a fit if they were obligated to go to work on those days. sold cars and people really went to work on one of those days!!
people need to upload more clips like this. I prefer funnier stuff myself, check out dolphinhump. lostfrog . com , I laughed so hard I got kicked out of class! haha.
Im from Austin and i now live in north idaho... i got to tell you folk this video is not that big a deal compared to livin up here... but pretty amazing for austin...
We used to get that all the time in NJ but thanks to Global warming and a few North Korean missile tests Texas get the winters now and NJ is nice and warm.
ive experienced a lot worse than that in chicago in winter of 93-94. ice so hardened that it breaks scrapers...dont live in the north if you can help it...it sucks the life out of you!!!
Sorry I live In Massachusetts where ice is a norm ..Its nice to see the rest of the country is getting a taste of what We go through every winter...enjoy :)
Typical Austin winter, except his ice is coming off easier than I remember it coming off my car :) I moved back to Michigan after 6 years of that ice crap, and the humid cold that chilled right to the bones. Give me honest snow! p.s. I live in Buffalo now, lol
That ice is weaker than it looks. I mean, it's not even stuck on the glass. Fortunately. Sometimes I've had that kind of ice on my car so stuck I couldn't scrape it off with a knife.
this is a true thing that happens! its not a chain letter! its kinda scary at first but it really works!! paste this message into 3 comments and press ALT F4 and your crushes name will appear on the screen!!! its soo weird!
In IL I had two inch thick ice on my windows, I couldn't even pick at it with a scraper. I ended up parking it in a garage with a space heater for 8 hours.
MO (okay, lets be truthful, the whole midwest) has been hit hard this year. but hey! no school for a few extra days never hurt anything but vacation plans. :)
and here in MO the weather changes so sporadically that we'll have a deep freeze and a day later it will all melt and go up to a balmy 40Degrees F.
anyway cool video; nice choice of song. (although I didn't see any snow!)
I've never seen that before, here in the UK we dont really get enough rain etc to fall and freeze when its real cold. It's usually just really cold but dry.
Ha! dude you are so lucky that it is so warm and you can break it off that easy! When it happens here in minnesota and the temperature drops below zero, if you try to bang on the window ice - you will either have no effect or you will break your f**n window! damn! that will make you late for work!
Wow,just had a bit of snow (few centimetres) in the uk a couple of weeks ago and the country ground to a halt. Even though the USA has a megalomaniac loony running country, good to see people going out in proper harsh weather.
haha that was funny. thats how it is usally in MASS during the winter but not this year. damn global warming now i cant break ice on my car like texas can
Lol, i have to laugh, i live 60 miles from the canadian border in Minnesota and that happens to us here a couple of times every year. however it stays and doesn't melt here
Hey, I wish I took a video of cleaning my car on the 17th. The ice was a lot thicker in Georgetown. You can't just bang on the car to get the ice to break. I had a cool trick for the window - you get in the car door to open and roll down the window. The ice will still be intact. Then you break the ice from inside of the car.
Nice soundtrack. :P I live in New Zealand. The coldest it gets in my neck of the woods is about 10 degrees celsius, and we still walk around in tshirts.
boring ...the snooze factor on this one is at least 8.9 i did not watch it to the end ...boring! show someone bustin' their ass on the ice so we can laugh
If it stays cold & the lakes freeze over, you can try Ice Fishing like we do up here in the Great White North. You drill a hole through the ice on a lake & fish through it. Be carefull though, as one Neubies wife nearly drown when she tried to cook the 500 Lbs of ice the dude brought home from his first "Ice Fishing" trip!! LOL
DUDE!!-If that ever happens again, dont hit the window like that- I know a guy whose window was frozen like that and he hit the window it was so cold that the window shattered!!!
You are an incompetent idiot 76ryan. You know what? You're right, it's because of Texans, not because of the people all around the country that voted for George W. Bush, that the rest of the world hates us. Why don't you come down to Texas and say something like that instead of being a pussy on the internet.
I'm from Houston, my car was left outside like yours, there was ice cicles on my side mirrors. That's about all she wrote. Still never seen snow, seeing as how i've lived down here my whole life
I'm in Austin, too, and saw the same thing. However, watching a video of it is like watching grass grow. Ho hum. I kept waiting for you to break the windshield.
We got maybe a tenth of an inch one night in Houston, and yet the city was basically shut down for the day. In the morning, when there was still ice on the roads, there were an amazing amount of accidents because people either didn't know or didn't care about the ice - they were still going over the speed limit!
haha welcome to Maine weather!!! :D thats nothing. we had an entire ice storm in '97. i'd wake up every morning to a minimum of 1inch of ice on the vehicles. in a week, we had 8 inches of ice on the driveway. the trees were so heavy, they bent over and touched the ground. they looked like arches.
But the beautiful thing about Texas weather is that (1) that doesn't happen often and (2) when it passes, it is back up in the 60s/70s the next day. Ahhh Texas =) HOOK 'EM!!!
Bro I feel your pain, we left several of our cars outside that night. The next morning, we got a huge surprise. It was a fun week though. Get ready for this weekend. It's gonna be COLD!!
I live in Austin and Im from Chicago and I almost fell out my chair laughing when i saw how terrified people were to drive and acted as if they never seen ice or snow, but I then i remembered i wasnt in Chicago anymore.
So it's raining and then the rain freezes or what?

Be carefull though, as one Neubies wife nearly drown when she tried to cook the 500 Lbs of ice the dude brought home from his first "Ice Fishing" trip!! LOL

I hate Texans sooooo much. You guys are why the rest of the world hates our country.

You are an incompetent idiot 76ryan. You know what? You're right, it's because of Texans, not because of the people all around the country that voted for George W. Bush, that the rest of the world hates us. Why don't you come down to Texas and say something like that instead of being a pussy on the internet.

I thought it was hilarious that my school closed for 3 days, just because of some ice. Texas is a strange state.

I wish the ice would come off from our vehicles as easily as this video. Here in Canada it would take an hour to get that off.

I'm from Houston, my car was left outside like yours, there was ice cicles on my side mirrors. That's about all she wrote. Still never seen snow, seeing as how i've lived down here my whole life

I'm in Austin, too, and saw the same thing. However, watching a video of it is like watching grass grow. Ho hum. I kept waiting for you to break the windshield.

We got maybe a tenth of an inch one night in Houston, and yet the city was basically shut down for the day. In the morning, when there was still ice on the roads, there were an amazing amount of accidents because people either didn't know or didn't care about the ice - they were still going over the speed limit!

haha welcome to Maine weather!!! :D thats nothing. we had an entire ice storm in '97. i'd wake up every morning to a minimum of 1inch of ice on the vehicles. in a week, we had 8 inches of ice on the driveway. the trees were so heavy, they bent over and touched the ground. they looked like arches.

But the beautiful thing about Texas weather is that (1) that doesn't happen often and (2) when it passes, it is back up in the 60s/70s the next day. Ahhh Texas =) HOOK 'EM!!!
