I wonder how much the weather will affect the Primary turnout in Texas tomorrow?
It is supposed to snow tonight in East Texas. It has been raining all day and the temps will be in the mid 20's.

2. None. Crisp and clear statewide
A little chilly in the morning, but a chamber of commerce type of day (i.e., a good day for golf).

Today on the other hand -- YUK

...SNOW ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM 9 PM THIS EVENING TO 4 AM CST TUESDAY...

THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN SHREVEPORT HAS ISSUED A SNOW ADVISORY...WHICH IS IN EFFECT FROM 9 PM THIS EVENING TO 4 AM CST TUESDAY.

A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL BE MOVING THROUGH THE REGION TODAY... BRINGING WITH IT A SURGE OF MUCH COLDER AIR INTO THE NORTHERN THIRD OF NORTHEAST TEXAS...SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA AND MUCH OF SOUTHWEST ARKANSAS. AN UPPER LEVEL STORM SYSTEM WILL MOVE INTO THE REGION...WITH RAIN EXPECTED TO CHANGE OVER TO SNOW LATER THIS EVENING. EXPECT SNOWFALL AMOUNTS NEAR TWO INCHES BEGINNING LATE TONIGHT THROUGH EARLY TUESDAY MORNING...MAINLY ALONG AND NORTH OF A LINE FROM CLARKSVILLE TEXAS TO ASHDOWN AND NASHVILLE ARKANSAS. SOUTH OF THIS LINE...EXPECT SNOWFALL AMOUNTS NEAR ONE INCH NEAR A PITTSURG...LINDEN...TEXARKANA TEXAS... TO PRESCOTT ARKANSAS LINE.

GROUND TEMPERATURES REMAIN VERY WARM... SO SNOW ACCUMULATION SHOULD BE LIMITED TO ELEVATED OBJECTS ONLY... INCLUDING SOME BRIDGES AND OVERPASSES.

A SNOW ADVISORY MEANS THAT PERIODS OF SNOW COULD CAUSE SOME TRAVEL DIFFICULTIES. BE PREPARED FOR SNOW COVERED BRIDGES AND OVERPASSES AND LIMITED VISIBILITIES...AND USE CAUTION WHILE DRIVING.


Like I said...we have had massive rain today--temperatures in the mid 20's tonight will definitely cause some icing over.
Doesn't look like we will get out of freezing before noon.

4. whatever it causes,
count on the Clinton campaign to use it as an excuse of unfair advantage for Obama-even God doesn't want Hillary Clinton is I guess what they'll claim next

8. MY candidate
is the same one in your avatar picture-but unlike the Clinton drones-I KNEW when it was time to let go and accept the fact that MY candidate wasn't viable any longer at which point I switched over to Obama-part of the reason why is the way I saw the Clinton operatives right here on democratic underground trying to propagandize the board. I see it as an insult to my intelligence that they thought we wouldn't see through their game

7. Dallas probably not too bad, other than maybe early am. Terrible tonight, but 51& clear tomorrow.
There will probably be ice on the ground early tomorrow morning or a little snow. Those of us who live here know it doesn't take much ice to shut down the roads! But wait 5 minutes and the weather changes! I'm sure the roads'll be fine by sometime in the morning.
