Yep, two in January and one in February. It is on the front page of HGX NWS today. January 11, 1973 was the first of three rounds in 1973. I was 7 years old and remember very well

I’ve heard stories of 73 and 77-78 winters. My father played a football playoff game in heavy snow in 1977. I kinda remember, vaguely, the ‘83 December and I certainly remember ‘85 and ‘89.

I was here - all 3 years of me. 😂 There’s a picture of mom holding me outside our house in West U. Snow was quite thick.

My Senior Year of high school. The trees were covered in beautiful ice crystals. Live stream from Lake Charles NWS is comparing the coming weather to 2021 FWIW .

I’m pretty sure I remember this. I remember us having one really bad ice storm in the 90’s. This was probably it.

The 1997 ice storm is the most significant winter storm SE Texas has seen in the last 30 years.I lived in Humble at the time. There were thunderstorms with heavy rain with temps below freezing. We received around 1 inch of ice accumulation and were without power for a day. Some areas saw enough accumulation for large branches to fall and cave roofs.

Anyway 0Z NAM. The coastal low the models are now developing could enhance precip here. And lead to a higher end event than what is expected at the moment. Something to watch...
