IAM LEGION User ID: 28673368 United States 12/19/2012 05:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Dust storm in West Texas north of Lubbock has caused a 23-car pileup on I-27, resulting in 1 fatality and 17 injuries. Winds sustained at 30-40 mph with gusts to near 70 mph! Quoting: Informed1 [link to forecast.weather.gov] [link to lubbockonline.com] iam east of lubbock and heard they shut down i-27 north and south bound lanes. Correct. I-27 is shut down in both directions due to zero visibility. The access roads are open, but TexDot is escorting the traffic due to the extreme conditions. All local TV stations have been running no-stop coverage for several hours at the request of the DPS and TexDot to help to discourage travel throughout the South Plains and Panhandle. Flights in and out of LIA have either been cancelled or delayed indefinitely. we have not had wind and dust like this in a long while. dust bowl era, but almost in winter?????

Winds starting blowing hard about 3am this morning, and they stopped for awhile but are blowing hard again. It looks like blizzard conditions here right now, because the winds are whipping up the snow we already got a couple of days ago, and new snow is now falling softly.. |

Bluebird User ID: 27748381 United States 12/19/2012 07:47 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | People look at wind map for first time in months, if not their first time ever. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 9266723 Declare it to unusual and doom without having done any research. Never change GLP. Oh, no, not when you live in a tornado alley as lots of us do. Also, don't forget what doomers we are so I'd venture a guess that lots of GLPers are big fans of wind maps. One of the most important aspects of conspiracy theories is being able to discern when there isn't one. Oh yeah, like you'd understand anyway. Where are we going and why am I in this handbasket?. . .J. Handy |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 18850150 The windy side of the circulation is near Pantex, the USA's nuclear weapon assembly, disassembly and storage facility, in the Texas panhandle. [link to en.wikipedia.org] Yes, I'm here to verify everything that was said about this weather. I live in Amarillo and I'm in the center of it all. I've been watching the weather and even for here in the Panhandle it's been WEIRD! We've had red skies and 60 mph winds all day with blowing dust. Now, within 30 minutes, the temperatures went from 68 to 30 and blowing snow like a blizzard! The highway from Amarillo to Lubbock has been closed down for hours and the accidents were on the local news. I"m used to crazy weather but this is absolutely NUTS even for being in the heart of the USA.... . |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 21943549 United States 12/19/2012 07:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I see everyone giving their weather conditions... That does not explain this wind map. This is one of those WTF moments. Nobody has an explanation for this? How can all the wind converge into the same spot? Rotating I can see, but this isn't a rotation, this is very odd. |
