Snow flurries here in Tyler.
People turn in to super idiots when it's just raining, let alone snow.
Wait until Texas gets one of these:

Then you can panic
We got two feet of snow two months ago, this shit is weak.
Colder than a witch's tit in a brass bra... (Lived in TX all my life, know it's not cold to you Yankees etc)

That happened here in Kansas a couple years ago. I live in the country and have a long driveway lined with trees that hang down over it. Power was out and the trees were so weighed down they were almost to the ground. I ended up being too scared to walk under em lol, went across a field to neighbor's driveway, went and stayed with a friend in town for a few days.
The first night was insane with the power shit, standing out in the backyard looking around the neighborhood it was like a fireworks show with the transformers blowing up everywhere and shit.
Some good pics here:

It was interesting, crazy destructive, but also some of the most beautiful sights I've ever seen.

We got about 2secs of snow, and then it went away. All that snow completely missed San Antonio.
I just moved from Minneapolis to Dallas last week... it's hilarious to see people talk about the snow and how cold it is here when I actually consider this to be NICE weather for December.
As someone who spent 25 years of his life in MN, I can honestly say fuck the snow and fuck cold weather. That shit is straight up disabling and makes me just want to curl up in a ball and die. I'm talking anything in the 20s or colder, which is several months of the year in MN, not to mention the windchill. I have no idea how I honestly tolerated it for so long.
damn i didn't know there were Houstonians here other than my self lol - i mean i should have known better due to the crazy population, but i didnt think id run into any i mean lol
oh and we had a lot of snow at work downtown today, was pretty cool , not so much where i live though , not so cool
and lol @ our city going on major shut down
Long, long ago, when I was around 6 years old, it snowed in southwest corner of LA.
It was up in the Palos Verdes hills, and it was only a handful of flakes that barely hit the ground, but it happened.
It has hailed and carpeted the ground a few times though, last time was... less than a decade ago I think.
