I doubt I am going to be seeing my Dallas Morning News paper this morning.It is 21 degrees right now at 6am. I can not see out my bedroom window due to it being covered with ice. Frozen stuff was hitting it for hours last night, making a tinkling noise like a muted wind chime.
Schools of all types, grade schools, high schools, colleges and universities are closed today, or opening late, across North Texas, .
My town, Fort Worth, had 366 wrecks between 8am and 8pm, with 207 of them taking place between 6:30 and 8pm.
In Dallas a man fell to his death on a bridge over the Trinity River when he slipped after getting out of his car after a wreck.
A Crowley man was killed when he slid into a tree near East Loop 820.
The weather has not been kind this year to the Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo. On Tuesday most of the Stock Show, including the carnival midway, shut down early, or did not open at all. Even though the Stock Show shut down on Tuesday, Stock Show officials say they will open today, regardless of weather conditions. Which does not make a whole lot of sense, due to Wednesday starting off way worse than Tuesday, temperature-wise and ice-wise.
There have been some flights cancelled at D/FW Airport, most by American Airlines. I have a Puerto Rican flying in today on American Airlines. I won't be going to the airport to provide taxi service.

I am over near the stock show and it isn't too bad over here. Hopefully it will clear up later.
