How About This Weather We've Been Having?

Ugh. So much for the holiday on Monday.

I have to go in Monday afternoon for a 24hr shift to support ICS to minimize down time and keep your heaters and lights on...

Only down side of my career change from IT to OT.... Being on call and weather events.

 

Early Sunday GFS and Euro have both come into agreement on dumping snow on SE Texas

 

Wrong thread

 

I'm going in for at least 24 hours and as many as 36 hours starting Monday afternoon....I fully understand why, but it's still funny how much more serious winter storms are to this area than hurricanes.

 

For a preview of what is coming, San Antonio radar shows The Weather between Victoria and San Antonio. Then slide the image to see the moisture in the GOM below Corpus Christi.

My aunt in Galveston sent this picture. There's a row of snowplows on the seawall.

 

Is anyone else getting their kids up in the middle of the night at ~3 or 4 AM to check out the snowfall?

 

That's wild. I've never seen snowplows in the Hill Country

 

Its already started downtown but its more slush at this point.

Snow!

 

When was the last snow in Houston?

 

Y’all should remember the drill. Keep your taps open a little bit to keep water flowing, dress in layers, have more water on hand in case your pipes do burst, and drive slow!

Best of luck Houston with winter storm 2025. And if you feel like things seem bad there it’s -18 F this morning in Minnesota.

 

Feb. 15, 2021: 1 inch of snow

Dec. 7, 2017: 0.7 inch of snow

Dec. 4, 2009: 1 inch of snow

Dec. 10, 2008: 1.4 inches of snow

 

Man this is wild, it isn't a light covering this is proper snow.

The sidewalk in my apartment is at least 2 inches already.

 

Just had a snow ball fight with my kids here on the coast. Fun!

 

Yeah this is legit snow. Happy for the kids who’ve never seen it like this.

But hope everyone is smart and stays safe!
