Got a PM from srainhou that he's apparently locked out of this forum. They're working to get him back in.

He can't even access the site, which is leading me to believe it may be a virus or DNS problem for him. I'm heading to his house this afternoon with my IT briefcase to get him back on line. That's why the post from Christine Di Stadio if anyone else was having issues..

I thought that people in southeast Texas could have a chance at seeing some sleet or snow mixed in with the rain from this evening until roughly noon tomorrow and then form tomorrow evening until roughly noon friday, Mr. T?

Have him try google dns - 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

Also, run the flushdns command. I would also suggest spybot search and destroy, along with Eset nod32 antivirus.
Other than that, if there are many folks having trouble with this site, then I would suggest that srain's computer is fine.

'cuse the off subject, but I had him try the flushdns yesterday. Even had him change his DNS setting to OpenDNS to no avail. I'm taking my laptop to plug into his Uverse RG. That will tell me something right away.

Light sleet starting to fall here in downtown Austin. As Sgt. Schulz used to say on "Hogan's Heroes": "I saw it with my own two eyes!"

Where's Lucy? :mrgreen: S2K is down right now. Hope to have it back up ASAP!!
Sleet reports coming in from SW of Houston also. I've seen the discussions, etc. I'm still wondering if we're in for a surprise here and to our North and West.

If that Canadian is right --- which it is probably overdone, there will be significant snow fall totals for East TX/Central TX on Thu night...maybe a few spots pick up 5-6". Although it will be a very wet snow.

I am curious, in the areas there reporting sleet, what are the surface temps? Has the wet bulb effect taken over?

Hi everyone!!! Just joined after lurking for some time.

Can any of the promets on the site specifically speak of Bryan, Texas and what we might get and when? I keeping getting excited and anxious all at the same time but figure it will probably be like every other time and we get nothing but nasty cold rain. Bryan is about 8 miles north from College Station and see CLL being mentioned every once in a while.

Thanks so much in advance.
