Is the fecking DFW airport open yet?!!? I've got a job I shipped Monday for McDonald's Corp. that was to arrive Tuesday for a conference and it's still in DFW.
Partially - was it going through DFW or Alliance? I know Love Field where Southwest flies out of has been closed for the last two days. I can't recall them ever shutting down that whole airport for even a day.

Its a total cluster here - a solid inch of ice - there are kids in skates playing hockey on the residential streets.

Going through DFW. It's supposed to be moving today. I hope it gets there before the conference ends.

I thought Texans were tough. A little ice and the whole city shuts down for days. Puzzies! You guys might as well become part of Mexico.

No, it's been explained that ice in Texas is special super-slippery ice, unlike the stuff you and I get.

Not the ice. But snow tires or chains here are as foreign as vegetables on hotdogs.

Have no fear. The Official Vette Barn Weather and Satellite Navigation Division is monitoring the storm's progress.



If there are any changes or emergencies, we'll be running for cover, so consult your local TV station.
