This is one of those times when we need the "sympathy" button. Snow and rain together may be the worst weather possible.

Oh, I know. That's why I said I would understand school closing if there was just a little snow on the roads.

I feel for the kids stuck at school in Birmingham and Marietta, Ga.

I heard Atlanta had them out in the middle of the day yesterday, but before they could do much, schools and everything else closed sending everyone out onto the roads, and the plows and trucks were stuck in gridlocked traffic.

Yeah, I saw the interview with the Mayor of Atlanta, and he commented that was one thing that they learned this time...they should stagger closings in order to prevent this type of gridlock.

Nah, 95 fahrenheit isn't crispy to me either. Throw on another 10 degrees like happens here for a large portion of the summer and then it starts to get a little toasty.

It's funny, but Texas is either referred to as bein' in the south, southwest, or west dependin' on who's doin' the referrin' and what their particular perspective is, so I'll just go ahead and chime in...
It was 27 and clear overnight and I still had some residual ice on my car, but, other than that, everything else is gone precip-wise. It's 44 now with a predicted high of 48. 30 overnight then warming into the mid-60's tomorrow, then the mid-70's on Friday and Saturday. Those two little freezing rain/sleet/ice incidents are probably the worst we'll see 'til spring. But, then should come umpteen days of 100+ degree weather and more drought this summer. Woof.

Anything west of Dallas is Southwest. Houston is still East Texas and therefore Southern.Texas is Southwest to me.I have family in Pasadena/LaPorte/Deer Park.

There is a Simpsons episode where that happens and I would pretty much be Bart if I was in the same situation. I would plot an escape and even dig my way out if I had to.
And let me tell you, that automated phone call at 5:40am is one of the best things on Earth. 2 minutes later and I would have been already in the shower. 2 hours later and I actually was. Can't beat extra sleep.

In order to get to TX from MD , you must go south and west, or southwest. Therefore, TX is in the Southwest

It's all SW of me. I guess it can go the way of the pop/soda debate. People here consider south anything Tennesse and below. SW starts at Texas. Cartographically maybe not correct, but that's another debate I'm not up for.
I lived for a while right outside Texas, Maryland. It is a little town next to Cockeysville. For my non-Marylander friends, I would usually say I lived in Texas because it is a heck of a lot better to say than Cockeysville....

I know exactly where Texas MD is. There's also a Phoenix, MD...

There's an innate fallacy in that statement. Alabama is also south and west of Maryland, but certainly NOT in the Southwest.

Alabama is deep south.
