Dallas Weather


















On February 11th and 12th, something very unique happened here in Dallas. There was a snowfall. As a result, classes were cancelled. Being from Wisconsin, I was in awe almost the entire two days. I was extremely shocked by the excitement of the entire campus. It felt like everyone around me was seeing snow for the first time.

In high school, I had to wait until there was over a foot of snow for there to be a chance of a snow day. It amazes me how much attention there was for such a minimal amount. Everyone reacted by being too scared to drive or go anywhere at all. At home, my friends and I would drive in the middle of a snowstorm to the nearest mountain just to snowboard on the freshest snow. Anyone else used to snow and surprised by the reaction of everyone from here

However, although I can handle snow, I have been shocked in general by Dallas weather this year. The snow made me realize that I came to this University in hopes for warm weather and sunshine! This entire year has consisted of the most unpredictable and strange weather. Is anyone else disappointed by these unusual weather patterns?
