Speaker 2 (00:04):
We had great gains and the containment of the two
main main fires in the Los Angeles area. Unfortunately, a
couple of new ones started near San Diego. But a
lot of attention's been given to the record snow and
freezing temperatures where it's not normal the South. The record
in New Orleans, I did this research yesterday was ten
(00:25):
inches of snow on Valentine's Day, February fourteenth, eighteen ninety five. Now,
the way it all began was my brother start sending videos. Yeah,
I got light dusting, and I'm like, well, isn't that cute?
You got yourself a light dust and go outside write
your name in the snow. But it just kept coming,
and it just kept coming, and before it was done,
it was like doctor Javago. So I thought, well, we
(00:50):
should see if we just broke what would that be.
I got two hundred and thirty year record or one
hundred and thirty year record. So we've got my brother
Vick on the line in New Orleans.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
Good morning, Vick. It was more than a dust, It.
Speaker 4 (01:03):
Was more than a dusting. That was quite a Snowma.
You made why did you choose to make the snowman
a doadger?
Speaker 3 (01:11):
Well, long did you notice this or not that the
snowman we use mister potato head parts and it was
very ingenious. And h I think it was the best
snowman in the city. They've been putting them on Fox
Day here and I think hours was by far the
best snowman. But no, I'm telling you, first of all,
I don't mean to correct you my both because I'm
(01:31):
not in a correct business. But that ten inches in
eighteen ninety five with a two day total. Okay, so
that was a two day total. Uh And yesterday in
my back yard, I had twelve minutes, so you did
know you measured already. So I was going to send
you that we have a grow We got to do
a childhood story. So here's a great chime that one.
I've got one set up. I've got one set up,
all right, let me do mine first? Can I do
(01:53):
mine first? Okay, go ahead, it's going to be about
getting the logs well.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
Vic used to Vic used to always.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Threaten to leave when we were younger, which was very
traumatic for me because he was like my father and
my mother would always remind him. If you leave, you
will leave this house the way you came into this
world naked. So Vic, now you're picturing a kid, don't
He was, you know, like a young man.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
He was sixteen years old.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
So Vic dramatically takes all his clothes off. He's dark naked.
It subs zero outside in Arlington Heights, Illinois, northwest suburb
of Chicago. There's at least a foot and a half
of snow out there. And he proceeds out the back
door of the kitchen, stark naked. And then, you know,
I'm thinking, he just pop out for a second.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
Come right back in.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Mom slams the door and locks it. If for a
few minutes. I believe it was either rescued you. But
what was your story going to be?
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Well? I was a bit of a strong little child,
is what? I just a little ada? Yeah? Uh no,
My story was, remember I used to make you go
out and when it was a lot of snow out
there and we were doing the fire. You know, Bobby
did the fire. The little brother Bobby to the fires.
He was Bobby Bonfire. It was Bobby Bonfire and.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Imber you remember this, Do you remember the song when
Bobby Bombfire?
Speaker 3 (03:10):
Comes out with with a log. He can make anything,
anything burn. He was Bobby Bonfire. You know, I put
him in the drying when he's a top. That's the problem.
I know. You haven't forgiven yourself for that. No, I haven't, haven't.
(03:31):
I really haven't. No, But yesterday was I mean, you know,
I think that the best thing about yesterday was is
you know, I got up in the morning and I sat,
like you said, I saw the light dusting, and then
as it started to accumulate, I walked outside of you know,
because you know I lived, I live in the city.
I'm not in the summer. I'm in the city. And
(03:53):
just to go outside and feel, you know, the snow
coming down silent, it was something. It just kind of
reminded me of what God what the Lord talked about
in the in the psalms with David talked about about
our sins were washing white. You know, there's something about
snow that that that that's clean.
Speaker 4 (04:12):
Yeah, you know, it insulated.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
It insulated too, which is another fun thing to think about,
but it is. And that was like when we were kids,
it was so peaceful when you would go outside, it's
like beyond silent and snow with your travels, but you're
not used to seeing it in your neighborhood, that's for sure.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
No, No, and this was I mean this was a
major I mean there's a lot of I mean we're
stuck in the we can't go anywhere today. I mean
we're stuck. Well, you probably won't build you that house,
so prideing now. People from Arkansas brought down some trucks,
brought down some tricks. That is, yeah, here.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
Copenhagen for a week, but they'll be there to help.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
No, but there's everybody. You should have seen the stores
the ninety four it was even, it was it was
the hurricane times ten. You know. Let me just say
they really did predict this thing, right, we're talking about
a week before. Of course, I do a podcast and
I haven't been relative summit podcast on John who really
started to uh predict this and then he started say
(05:19):
five no, way five to six inches. Well no, but
it just wouldn't stop. It snowed for twelve hours. Yeah
it was, and it was beautiful. Are you picture of
the house? Huh? I told you, I told you got
your Christmas card.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
A little known fact my brother Vica, New Orleans, we
have surpassed. Now we can confirm twelve inches, which would
beat the eighteen ninety five record of ten inches in
New Orleans. So this is certainly a historic snowfall.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
I can tell you that those are two day, two
days total to ten inches.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
Well either way, you beat it.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
You beat it in one to even take it to
but you're not expecting they're not expecting hours.
Speaker 4 (05:53):
But here's a little known truth.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Now, in the class of eighty two of the Cold Classic,
you have yours truly, who has a premiere national morning show, and.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
Then you have Bruce Catch. Bruce Ga from.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
My class is the meteorologist, big meteorologist in norms. So
does Bruce forecast any more snow?
Speaker 3 (06:10):
Or is it?
Speaker 4 (06:11):
And when will the melt take place?
Speaker 3 (06:12):
No? No, no, no no. We have sunshine today. It make
it over freezing for the low wat some of it,
some may melt. It won't be till pride it really
until it really starts to melt. But you know Bruce
was right on top of it. Uh. You know, Bruce
could be found every day at noon at me a pub.
And we don't say, we don't want to out that
(06:36):
all right, So obviously you and I grew up with snow.
We would walk to school in the snow. We would
play in the snow. People. I tell people used to
walk about how long was it? How far walk was
it South Junior High and a mile? Oh it was
more than me. Yeah, it was like it was over
a half hour walk. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
And I used to play the little game of how
long could I walk without the snow, you know, giving away?
So I was actually walking on top of the snow.
That's how much. That's how cold it was in Chicago.
Remember you get to our lady of Wayside and you
weren't quite the south yet and by then you were frozen.
You know, you know, for your grandkids, this this had
to be memorable. This is the first time a lot
(07:14):
of them have seen snow.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
Well, you know, the big tubs are bringing to the
storage space. You know, of course we have a storage space.
Marta and I and every time we go there we fight,
but I regret. But the top of the tub, we
were going down the levee in h down by the
lakefront and we're sledding, we were sletting h. They were
loving that. They were just lobbing it.
Speaker 4 (07:34):
Andy, frozen nutrient.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
Did you come across any no frozen nutria. No, but
it really I don't know what to say. I mean,
you know when you talk about the Golden Day, I
mean you got Monday, all that stuff that Trump was beautiful.
I stayed all the watchful thing. They get a liquor
work done, and then you had what went on yesterday
made be the beginning of the Golden Age.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
It is certainly the picture of you. I never thought
i'd see the outside of your house look like that.
And I told you then and I'll say it again
here on the air. You got your Christmas card? Yeah,
you got your Christmas card, Partier, that's for sure.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
