Sorry I haven't kept you all updated on the weather here...I had school today.

The Dallas-Fort Worth area smashed a record of total snowfall today...8.7 inches of snow in one day. This broke an old record of 7.8 inches. I, and many others, have never seen ANYTHING like this...it has snowed for almost 20 hours straight, and the stuff is still coming down.

Be sure to check in the Dallas/Fort Worth weather thread tomorrow for more info. Yes, Patrick, this has definetely been an unusual winter for DFW.

The storm might even move further south this time to reach my area. Rain/snow showers are expected for us on Thursday.

Why did TWC hire Todd, then? I know they are probably paying him cheap and know he has had previous experience, but if he isn't that good, then he shouldn't even be on TWC.

No offense to any Todd or any of his fans...

The New Orleans Saints pulled off the upset by beating the Indianapolis Colts 31-17 in Super Bowl XLIV.  I can only imagine the party going on in Bourbon Street right now.

YAY! I'm glad they won. They deserve it after Katrina plus it's their first Super Bowl win.

I'm right with you, Molly...I was thinking that same thing.

Go SAINTS!!!!!!!!!!

Alex Wallace and Adam Berg on PME at 7 PM ET.

Yeah, my U-Verse TV Guide showed that WeatherProof and Cantore Stories were supposed to be on...I don't know if this was a mistake, or if they were pre-empted for the Winter Powerhouse.

Yeah I seem to be getting the short end of the stick here... and what a short end it is.

Let us folks who rarely get snow get some for a change

Martin, I don't understand. Virginia seems like a place that would get a lot of snow in the winter...I guess it's not. Maybe I need to brush up on my weather-knowledge.
