Well, guess I'm going to go see the Alamo after all. Planes are grounded due to this insane winter ice storm. Apparently whenever the American Meteorological Society meets, bad weather follows. I wish someone had told me this in advance.
More blogging today in a bit...
P.S.: Jeff Masters has more on the crazy weather here...

Years ago, I covered an AMS meeting, and the most interesting part to me was the daily forecast briefing and discussion by a couple of guys from one of the commercial services - Accuweather, I think. For days, they were talking about a storm that was bearing down on us, likely to hit right about the end of the meeting. Sure enough, it snowed like crazy.
