Wow! Great news from the heart of "Red" west Texas
its going to do something it NEVER does at this time of year: SNOW

Yep, Lubbock and vicinity is looking at potentially 2-4 inches of snow o'night into the morning. If you want nature to "depress" the vote, then this is one of the top contenders.

Hey, I grew up in "scary liberal New England" I'll be at the polls at 6:30 waiting for the doors to open. I have the clothing and the weather experience!!! :evilgrin:

(Oh, and being in a "nice" middle class neighborhood my poll is convenient----less than a mile and althought no one walks here at all. I will....)

11. Snow in Lubbock. Wow, does that bring back memories.
I was raised there. I remember once, must have been in 1972 or around there, I was coming back from a night of partying, driving down 50th street near Ave Q I believe, it was snowing very heavy, with the biggest prettiest snow flakes I have ever seen. Just Floating by the millions.

One of those memories, that never seems to fade. Enjoy your snow day tomorrow. Wish I was there. We hardly ever get much snow in my area of Texas.
