Default Snow in Texas?!?!?!?

Yes it does, and here's proof:

These pics were taken on Valentine's day-

Tex-ass snow-----------Clicky here!

I know its not a lot, but hell, its snow and it was enough for a snowball fight (in which I got to pummel my 8 and 4 yr old daughters).

I know you guys in the NorthEast are jealous of me for only getting snow only once a year, and at most 2". j/k

Those pics were taken at the elementary school across the street.

Was this their first snow? If so, you should have let them win! They would have remembered it better! :chuckles:

There are 'mountains', but they're only like a few thousand feet above the rest of the land. Keep in mind that West Texas and where I'm at in Dallas are two completely different kinds of areas.

Marfa (between El Paso and Big Bend National Park (by the spooky :eek3: Marfa Lights (which they have large radar installations by the side of the highway:closeup: ))) is over a mile above sea level; unlike where I'm at, at only 650 feet above sea level. Snow is common there in the winter, but Dallas is lucky to get it once a year, if that much. Sure, we get ice, but nobody can build a proper snowman with ice.
