I live right on the Plano/Frisco line at the DNT/Sam Rayburn and much like in Fort Worth, the temp is at 32 here but nothing is icing. Just wet and nasty.

Pretty nice thunderstorm here in Frisco for the first time in a while. Had some friends down in Addison that lost power.

Never have lost power for more than an hour in Concord over the last 20 years... Also has their own power company.

Dumping here in Concord smack dab in the middle of that band.

I know this thread isn't 100% related to what my question is, but it was the first one to show up in my search so..... Here I go! I'm a junior in high school who is interested in Meteorology, but right now I'm thinking I may be inclined to major in Aerospace engineering as it is a subject I really enjoy as well and the job prospects seem somewhat better. It is obviously a bit early, but I am compiling a list of prospective colleges to look at/apply to... So far, these are some of the schools on my list.. -University of Texas -University of Washington -Georgia Tech -Rice University -University of California San Diego As might be able to tell, I am not really into staying around New England, but that could change. So after all that background, my question becomes, do any of these schools have Meteorology programs, and if so, what are their reputations? If I start college and don't like Aerospace, it'd be good to have Met as a fallback. Also, if there any other schools you guys think of that might suit my desires, I'm open to suggestions.

I honestly really enjoy that 6 inch or so event here in metrowest at the end of February...I had just returned home from Utah and hadn't been paying attention to the weather and Sunday morning I woke up to four inches on the ground with snow falling. Sometimes its nice not to over-analyze like we do here.
