Yeah, It snowed the entire drive to Houston. I got into Ft. Bend County and I guess the temperature had dropped a few degrees or something, but all the overpasses had frozen solid. I was driving and there were about 8 cars around and behind me. I was in the lead and stupidly doing about 80. Saw a bridge over a creek and it was solid white. I knew it was ice, but I was going 80. I took the foot off the gas, hit the ice and begin to slide sideways. I so thought it was all over for me. Thank god I learned how to drive on snow and ice growing up so I steered into the skid and crossed the bridge about the point of no return, as I was almost going sideways. I slowed the hell down after that. We all went from doing 80 to about 35. Then I began to see accident after accident. First one was in front of Katy Mills Mall and probably saw 10 accidents in a 8 mile stretch. I didnt knwo that was scarier, being on that mess or being on that mess with all the people from Houston who have never driven on it. Got to sister's house and they had an inch of snow here in Sugarland.
They got between 6 - 8 inches in Corpus. First White Christmas in 107 years. Brownsville got 1.5 inches. First measureable snowfall since 1895.
