Did Houston have measurable snow today (Dec. 4)? Early Network News programs expected snow plows? True? -

Today is Friday 12/4/2009 -- did the Houston area have snow this early in December? Was it more of a rain-snow mix?Thanks for posting -- 10 points for prompt and informative answers -- hope everyone is OK7:15 p.m.

It started snowing in south Montgomery County around 9 am and stopped 15 minutes later. It started again around 10 am and stopped after 3 pm. Large flakes were falling steadily for quite a while. But the ground was too warm and it wasn t sticking out here. It was building up on cars that were sitting in parking lots. The sky was rather pretty with all the snow that was falling. Parts of Houston had snow on the grass, but not on the roads. And I m doubt that Houston even has snow plows. It would be a total waste of money I would think. We ve never had enough snow to plow.

We had the earliest snowfall on record today. Tonight is supposed to set a record low temperature.There was an area stretching East-West of Houston that got 2-3 inches. To the North South got more rain than snow, ie. Galveston did not get any snow at all.We are all fine enjoying the rare Winter Wonderland quickly before it melts!

I live 1 hour north of Houston (Cleveland) and we had some snow fall. It was enough for the kids and I to play in and make snowballs and have snowball fights. As far as measurable I m really not sure.

Snowed actually really good Huffman but in the beginning and when it started/stopped it would melt. If it would ve all accumulated on the ground then we d probably have 4-5 inches.

it seems that the southern part of the city (as well as in Brazoria county, where I live) it snowed more than 2 inches.

It was rain snow not that hard just a little.

Not at all.
