Snow in Houston Friday (record, temperatures, cities, inches)

[ilovemycomputer90]

Texas probably has the most snow so far this season (discounting the western states).

I'm so excited! Tomorrow can't get here fast enough. I'm hoping it will snow all day. The weather reports are saying there is an 80% chance so that sounds promising.

Seems everyone in the south has gotten snow this past year except Savannah. =( (Florida being the other obvious exception)

New Orleans even got it last december!

From this animated radar, it looks like it's headed directly for Dallas.

Came into work an hour early and half the office was full. Most are hoping for early departure, snow expected in the afternoon, preceeded by freezing rain.

Hope you get it!

The WTC was talking about that this morning. I didn't realize that it had snowed down there last year. I definitely remember your snowfall Christmas, 2004 because TWC kept showing pics of it. It looked so funny to see snow on the palm trees by Corpus Christi.

TWC has been talking about this all morning. Such pretty green trees with snow coming down on them. It's like it would be here in late Sept/early Oct. Depressing to me, BUT I am happy for many of you down there cause I know you're enjoying it and it's so rare. It's not like this will be a start to a bad winter and the snow will lay there until May.

TWC did take about a 30 second break to show Great Bear Ski Resort over in Sx. Falls. They were talking about how it was snowing in areas that it doesn't snow and there is none where it usually snows. Great Bear was making artificial snow. I'm sure many of us up here are happy to share with you down in Tx. Well, at least I am happy to. They were also showing the snow and it looks like it went into La.

The future forecast shows that some other areas will get snow that generally don't. They showed Atlanta, Knoxville, and it will swing north of there.

I wasn't aware of the freezing rain part, Oildog. That won't be good so I hope everyone drives safely.

Freezing rain, not a good thing but the snow part is fun! They were saying southern states may get more than some areas of the midwest!

However, it is snowing here, a lake effect event, big flakes, actually sticking and very pretty!

Susan, I saw that it was snowing in your area. They were showing three spots they were watching~Tx~the Great Lakes Region~and Fla. It looks like Fla. is getting some major rain/thunderstorms today. SO, who's going to get more snow??? Susan's area or Tx.?

Yes it's snowing!!! I just wish it would stay around for a long time.
