Well, you just missed a snow event in February. Believe it was February 1st or 2nd 1994, big flakes that didn't stick.Ed Mahmoud wrote:
Never been a February snow miracle in the 11 years I lived in HOU. Well, HOU mailing address, Spring school district.
I remember the 1994 snow event. The flakes were large and it was also not that cold.Cloud2ground wrote: Well, you just missed a snow event in February. Believe it was February 1st or 2nd 1994, big flakes that didn't stick.
Believe it was 94 because my wife at the time was very pregnant.
Unfortunately Ed, some of us have to show up for work regardless of an impending Hurricane strike or icy roads.

Yeah, I live just north of Humble and we lost power then too. The one I was thinkiing of was 1985, b/c my son was small. The parking lot at work was like Ice for a couple of days b/c people would pour water on their windshields to deice them and it would run down on the ground and refreeze. That was like consecutive days though. It's been a while.don wrote:I remember the 1997 ice storm, at he time i lived in Humble and we had over an inch of ice accumulation also, i still remember that night so vividly because of the thunderstorms that developed which is pretty amazing when you have temps at freezing! We were without power for less than 24 hours.
January 1985 had three ice storms in one month! 1976 had an icestorm in November, the earliest on record. I remember one in February 1996.srainhoutx wrote:cisa wrote:Early February used to always be the time we'd see the snow and ice when I was a kid.
