Last November 13th, Bush recorded a trace of snow making that the earliest "snow" has fallen in Houston since records began. It seems we are seeing new early season "snow" records a bit more frequently since December 2009.

Before 2009, you might have seen snow once every 10-15 years. But now it seems we either have a high chance of seeing it or actual snow events every couple years. Almost like there has been a shift. Im certainly not complaining cause i really enjoy it, but I remember it use to be very rare. Now I almost feel like a northerner cause we see it so often now. Like every two years or less. Ill act like a little kid full of excitement every time i do get it though. Lol

I want another Dec 7, 2017.....that's what I want....
I’ve only seen snow stick to the ground 3 times here in my lifetime. 04, 09, & 17. Maybe it snows in your location, but doesn’t really do that where I’m at.djmike wrote: ↑Mon Nov 11, 2019 1:45 pm Before 2009, you might have seen snow once every 10-15 years.

I've noticed that also, over the last decade that wintry events have happened more frequently than they use to. Hopefully we have a nice snow event this winterdjmike wrote: ↑Mon Nov 11, 2019 1:45 pm Before 2009, you might have seen snow once every 10-15 years.

We had a trace of snow/ice pellets in CLL as well. I've never seen it snow in Texas or when I spent most of my formative years in NC. When we lived outside Chicago, there were a couple of days of snowfall in Nov, but it's pretty rare before Thanksgiving.srainhoutx wrote: ↑Mon Nov 11, 2019 1:29 pm Last November 13th, Bush recorded a trace of snow making that the earliest "snow" has fallen in Houston since records began.

My time in SE Texas comes to end this weekend. I promise that I will remain active around here as much as possible, but here is the WWA hoisted for the new home. All I have to say is it better be good weather for the moving truck to get up the mountain... I need a bed to sleep in mid next week!

The front barreled through College Station during a 40 min meeting. Temp has dropped 25°F and brisk bluenortherly wind.
TBH, this is a refreshing pause from the long-, hot summer. We have too many high humidity 100°F days in CLL - so I never complain about the colder weather. Gas heat is extremely cheap and I love saving $400+ on Utility bills.

It's when the snow melts on the blacktop, then re-freezes on slopes with curves that's a real issue in the mountains of NC this time of year. Inundation doesn't usually happen until Jan/Feb.
Best of luck with the move! A beautiful area of the country. There's an incredible diversity in species of plants and birds!
From 1992 - 2007 we has 2 ice storms and 1 snow in College Station.don wrote: ↑Mon Nov 11, 2019 2:33 pmI've noticed that also, over the last decade that wintry events have happened more frequently than they use to.

From 2008 - today 7 snows and about 6 icy events. Far more variability with more warm days in Dec, Nov, then few few longer lasting cold blasts in Jan - Mar, but separated by warmer weather usually. The exception was Jan a couple of years ago, with prolonged cold weather.
