I agree with the idea of a playful snowball fight or a pillow fight or making snow angels in the snow!
Feeling stuck? Try some playfulness! Play makes life more fun and flexible. Serious issues are best handled playfully!

This is the convective storm outlook for today. Scattered severe thunderstorms are possible from mid-afternoon into the overnight hours from east Texas into central/southern Mississippi.
Scattered severe thunderstorms are possible from mid-afternoon into the overnight hours from east Texas into central/southern Mississippi. ...East TX this afternoon to MS overnight... A midlevel shortwave trough over KS/OK/TX this morning will progress a bit north-of-east to the lower OH and TN Valleys by Tuesday morning. Only weak surface cyclogenesis is expected in advance of the de-amplifying midlevel trough, but there will be sufficient mass response to support a modestly strong low-level jet (roughly 40 kt) from northeast TX this afternoon into the Ark-La-Miss by early Tuesday. This low-level jet will correspond to the north edge of the richer low-level moisture (boundary-layer dewpoints of 66-70 F), and MLCAPE generally 1000-2000 J/kg near and south of the warm front. Convective mode is likely to remain rather messy through tonight, though cellular elements are expected given modest forcing for ascent along the deeper baroclinic zone from northeast TX eastward near the LA/AR border. Warm sector supercell development is also possible by early-mid afternoon from southeast into east TX (see MD 2222 for additional details), along a confluence zone (now from VCT-CLL) and aided by cloud breaks where surface temperatures warm into the 75-80 F range. The combination of moderate buoyancy and sufficiently long/curved hodographs will support the threat for a few supercells capable of producing a few tornadoes, occasional wind damaging and isolated large hail. The threat will spread this afternoon across east TX and then spread eastward overnight toward MS.

I continue to stand with Ukraine
Stop telling Ukraine to give up land. Start telling Russia to give it back.

The person who is meant for you won't meet you at your best. They'll come into your life during your mess. They will show you the best version of you and grow with you!

Those who are in our soul family are a special connection and have a non-verbal communication with us.
Your Soul Family are those that are tuned into your frequency. You sense a strong connection beyond blood or race you're connected by energy and vibration. Through quantum communication they intuitively answer your silent call and show up bringing unconditional love and support at the perfect times. You share an unspoken level of understanding -- they just get you and what you're about. For those people be thankful they are your reminders from the Universe that on the deepest level of our existence.

This is today's weather briefing by Ryan Hall. He previews Thanksgiving week travel weather. The northern plains likely will be in for lots of snow. The southern states likely will be in for thunderstorms over the next few days.

This is the convective storm outlook for today. A few severe storms capable of large hail will be possible this afternoon and evening across parts of west Texas.
A few severe storms capable of large hail will be possible this afternoon and evening across parts of west Texas. ...West TX... Current satellite imagery shows a well-defined upper low over AZ, with a band of showers and embedded thunderstorms preceding it across central/eastern NM. This low is forecast to continue northeastward throughout the day as a belt of strong mid-level flow pivots through its southern and eastern periphery across the southern High Plains and into the southern/central Plains. Low-level moisture will continue to advect northwestward ahead of this low and associated jet streak and model consensus brings upper 50s dewpoints into the Permian Basin by this evening. This should result in a relatively confined region of surface-based buoyancy across the Permian Basin, which will combined with large-scale ascent and strong shear to support supercells. Primary threat will be large hail, although the anticipated development of surface-based buoyancy does indicate a low-probability threat for strong winds and/or a tornado. Low-level stability will increase quickly with eastward extent, as a result of both nocturnal cooling and generally cooler surface temperatures throughout the day. Even so, enough elevated buoyancy is anticipated for continued strong to occasionally severe storms throughout much of the evening and overnight, particularly in the 03Z-06Z time frame across southwest TX. Hail is the primary risk with these storms.
