Record-breaking snowfall from Dallas!

The Austins of Warmsector.com experienced the record-breaking snowfall of February 11, 2010 in north Texas as stranded airline passengers at the DFW airport! In order to make it to their destination on time, they were forced to rent a car and drive out of Texas in treacherous conditions, on their way to Denver for the National Storm Chaser Convention! Over 12" of snow fell in some areas across north Texas, which was the most ever recorded for any 24-hr period.

Why do people belive that global warming just makes it warmer???? Global warming also creates extreme weather, that meens more ice storms and more lighningstorms. Warmer weather also creates more wind. Good luck to you all!!!!! :-)

hah! baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad time to wind up in DFW....this town has no idea what to do with or about snow, and everything was shut down for like 2 days due to this storm. i hope the airport was comfortable and accommodating! (cool vid tho!)

 You do remember last year in Dallas it snowed quite a bit more than this within a two day span and that was maybe a week or two later in February. Give it a week and the snow will likely be gone and you'll be wearing shorts again. Texas weather around here has always has rapid changes this time of year in any given week. I remember winters like this when I was in college...and when I was a kid. And every year people freak out about it. Al Gore is as good a scientist as he was a president.

Oh my God this looks like a scene out of a horror movie.  The Day After Tomorrow perhaps, but they didn't show any airport curtailment & chaos...is that the word. That voice coming from the terminal turns me right off, her voice is irritating and never mind what she's saying cause that dosen't help. What gets me is that this is way south of the True White North (Canada). I know it's cabable of snowing even over the Rio Grand...I'd also like to see this snow fall over the casino's in Vegas!

Do you know there's a city in Canada (White Rock) that registered a warmer winter season (2009 - 2010) than Dallas? It was not only warmer; but it was also DECIDEDLY milder than Dallas after factoring in wind chill. It's not the first winter it's happened, either. Surprised? If you need proof, I'd be MORE than glad to provide the proof. Historically, White Rock's winters are NORMALLY much milder than they are in Oklahoma City - especially after factoring in wind chill!

[ohiopherks]

Yeah, that was one crazy Winter for us here in North Texas and Southern Oklahoma... We had several snow events... and this was just the cream on top... the cherry came in a rare late March snow storm... it usually snows in North Texas, but this was unusually a large amount of snow.

I live in Haslet, Texas, and we got 15 inches from this snow storm! We had our first white Christmas in 2009 in over 80 years.
