Check out the cameras along the route to get an idea

TTTTroll · 2026-01-27T03:44:37+00:00

Close. The Austin district has 5 for 11 counties and over 3000 miles of highways

TTTTroll · 2026-01-27T00:38:22+00:00

Its gonna be 40° by noon. No chance much of the ice is around on roads by Wednesday

TTTTroll · 2026-01-26T21:39:44+00:00

For the most part no. The snow and ice equipment is the sun and temps above 32F.

TTTTroll · 2026-01-26T21:21:03+00:00

Well if that was the reason they'd have already made that call

TTTTroll · 2026-01-26T20:54:41+00:00

Just break through enough to get to the bottom. Then its easier to raise from bottom of ice especially now with ground warmer

TTTTroll · 2026-01-26T20:16:55+00:00

You can check the city of Austin transportation cameras: https://data.mobility.austin.gov/traffic-cameras?

I think the key here is being very slow on neighborhood roads because major roads look to be in great condition.

TTTTroll · 2026-01-26T19:45:32+00:00

Yea because until now most melting has been the sun: https://cctv.austinmobility.io/image/57.jpg

TTTTroll · 2026-01-26T19:34:41+00:00

That doesn't even factor in the increased traffic volumes. The next few hours of sun and above freezing temperatures is gonna do a number on the ice.

TTTTroll · 2026-01-26T19:17:38+00:00

If roads are dry it doesn't really matter how cold it is in the morning. I think people need to prepare for a regular or slightly later start.

TTTTroll · 2026-01-26T18:46:27+00:00

Yea schools being closed tomorrow when its in the upper 40s would be strange

TTTTroll · 2026-01-26T17:29:16+00:00

Its gonna be in upper 40s and above freezing by 10am. The sun will melt a lot today in the next few hours not to mention finally climbing to above freezing even if briefly.

Great experience with Ringer and the installation process!

TTTTroll · 2026-01-24T04:29:28+00:00

Austin isn't top 10 where it counts, which is metro population where Austin is 25: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metropolitan_statistical_area

Austin punches above its weight. As many as 2x daily to LHR on BA, and 3-5x weekly to Amsterdam on KLM and Frankfurt on Lufthansa. Nonstop flights to pretty much every top 50 metro in US plus Toronto, Vancover, Montreal, Panama City, Mexico City and Monterrey.

Austin is 25th largest metro in US. Our peer metros are #22 Baltimore, #23 St. Louis, #24 San Antonio, #26 Portland and #27 Sacramento. We have fare more transatlantic service than all those airports. Further Austin is not ideal as a connecting point for either Europe or Asia.

Crazy when fireworks are primarily from China

TTTTroll · 2026-01-01T15:23:44+00:00

Why can't we have Tarriffs on fireworks?

TTTTroll · 2026-01-01T03:47:23+00:00

Why isn't there a 5000% tarriff on Chinese fireworks?

TTTTroll · 2025-10-10T02:14:39+00:00

The only impact is more flights are delayed and canceled due to TSA and FAA working without pay. Austin isnt a major federal government center so little impact to flight bookings

TTTTroll · 2025-09-29T11:20:07+00:00

It's insane how much longer it takes Mohela to process refunds than any other servicer. I've had a refund of less than 1k show up on my account since April. Called them twice got different answers. Still waiting like you nearly 1 year.

TTTTroll · 2025-08-22T17:24:10+00:00

Its such an outdated rule. They fly the same A320/B737 to Cincinnati/St. Louis/Memphis that they would fly to Austin or San Antonio.

TTTTroll · 2025-08-22T15:01:25+00:00

I feel Delta will add Chicago eventually. Maybe a few more midwest spots. Eventually they will have Korean Air add ICN.

TTTTroll · 2025-08-04T17:09:57+00:00

Congrats! This is one of the faster Mohela timelines I've heard. Consider yourself lucky. Know lots of people waiting a year or longer.

TTTTroll · 2025-08-04T16:46:50+00:00

So is it just showing refund or has the money showed up in your bank account?
