FWIW - Ground to Cloud lightening is common among skyscrapers and tall buildings.  It starts from the ground (or skyscraper) from a positive charge and travels upward into the cloud.  As seen in pictures above.  The opposite is when more natural lightening travels from bottom of cloud to ground.  It is a flow of negative charges from the cloud to the ground.   :)

We've had some freezing cold nights that feel like 31 or 30 degrees.  Maybe feels like 29 or something.  But during the day when the sun is out - that Texas sun can warm anyone up (IYKYK) and it feels like 48 - 52. 

I don't see all the fuss they are having between La and Florida.

But yeah, my southerner friends in those areas are super geek'd about snow. Those people go into mode like "It's snow!!! Hey everybody look! - it's been 8 to 10 years since we saw snow!!! Let's show off - because the city is shut down for the next few days!!! It's awesome zomg!!!"

<_<

I mean, do people never imagine or think what life is possibly like living up on the East Coast and up in the Midwest? Or Wyo, Montana, Idaho, or the Dakotas?  Oregon, Wash State?  Even Kansas and Saint Louis and Chicago....  

Well I guess, perhaps not.  Me personally, I imagine and think about it and when it gets cold in Texas - like body shaking freezing cold and under 24 degrees - let me just say that I don't know how you do it because I couldn't.  I can't.  Much respect though.  Shout out to Nebraska.  And Buffalo New York.
