Freeze Warning, Snow, Tornado and Hailstone

Looks like the scene from the "Day After Tomorrow" is coming to Dallas except that its not going to be such a destructive forces of nature as depicted in the movie. The Weather forecast for early tomorrow morning in Dallas is -3 degrees celsius and with the humdity hanging around 65%, we might be experiencing snow right here. Wow, come to think of it I never experiencing such freezing temperature and not to mention snow too! Don't even know weather to celebrate outdoor when it snow or to stay indoor away from the cold. Texas use to be bright, sunny, dry and hot. Right now its really cloudy as we are under the edge of the invading cold front.

Autumn is here and the leaves are falling.
And the weather look gloomy.

Now the cold weather or cold front as they call it here came all way from North Western part of United States sweeping through many states in a South Easternly wind direction before landing right here in Dallas, Texas tomorow morning. So right now the weather is still pretty mild at 25 degrees celsius but we are already experincing the strong wind that is sweeping the cold front towards our place. There is already a Tornado warning siren been broadcast in certain area of Dallas and right now I am eager to see a Tornado 'LIVE' around my area ( but not crossing over my house). There is even report of quarter size hail stone that might be falling in our area.

Looking at the weather forecast, its going to be between -1 degree celsius to 13 degree celsius for the next 5 days. Talk about mother nature at its most coldest. Since all Hell is going to freeze for this few days, I am already embarking on a series of cold weather experiment for the next few days...

This is the same cup of water place at my balcony

Now I just gonna wait for night fall and see for the first time water turning into ice without a fridge. My camera, jacket and blanket is ready for tomorrow morning extreme cold weather... Planning to take video of snow if it occur. Some may thing I am kind of Bo Liao for this little experiment and the American might thing I am "Sua koo" but for a Tropical country boy like me, this is something very exciting to experience. Hmm...hopefully the ground freeze with a layer of ice just enough for a bit of ice skating with slippers.
