Snow In Dallas

The all-time 24-hour snowfall record for Dallas-Fort Worth was broken on 02-11-10 with 12.5 inches of snow. The National Weather Service says the previous record was 12.1 inches set in 1962.
達福地區遭遇70年代以來最大的雪量，從11日凌晨開始大雪紛飛，達福地區一片白雪皚皚，造成航班取消，交通受阻，學校關閉。據氣象部門報告，11日的大雪不僅破了當日的歷史紀錄，而且還創下70年代以來最大暴風雪的記錄，可能是25年來下雪最大、最多的冬天。至11日傍晚，積雪量達6吋，而且可能突破7.5吋的歷史紀錄。

Coldest weather in 12 years hits North Texas

After five days of near records cold in North Texas, temperatures are not expected to rise above freezing until Saturday afternoon, and the wind chill could dip below zero. North Texas will likely see wind chill factors near zero in the early morning hours Friday.
Some bridges and overpasses had thin layers of ice early Thursday morning, but the patchy ice disappeared with the afternoon sunshine.
To adapt to the cold weather. The better ideas are: stay indoors, turn the heat up and add extra layers.
