I can't remember the last time it snowed in Shreveport. It used to snow every few years back in the 60's and 70's. I remember one particularly nice snow in 1978. About 8 inches as I recall.

While I'm at it, here is a really cool time lapse video of the Shreveport Bossier Skyline. This mpg file is 3MB in size.

...What is important is how we live and what we contribute.

Yes, that timelapse video is pretty cool. What gets me of that panarama of the city.. is how FREAKIN' FLAT everything is. Too bad there aren't any MOUNTAINS on that horizon

LOL, bite your tongue! Cell phone service is bad enough around here without moutainous terrain!

Oh the other hand, if there were mountains, usually the tops are covered with cell phone antennas perched on top. So maybe I'm wrong, and Cingular would find it easier to "build towers". Oh nevermind, yea some mountains would be nice.

I always like the Willow Ridge area on Cross Lake which I guess is a bluff (closest thing we have to a mountain)

The last time it snowed in Shreveport enough to stick was around New Years 2000-2001.

Well said Ol' Blue Eye. This is why I enjoy contributing to sites like this. I wish I had more to offer. I'm thinking of creating a podcast or maybe an video animation of some sort. I wish there were more hours in the day to create and share new things.
